LITHIUM-SULFUR BATTERY

A lithium-sulfur battery capable of retaining excellent energy density and capacity even when discharged at a fast rate and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The lithium-sulfur battery has a ratio of an amount of lithium sulfide (LiS) present at 100% depth of discharge state (DoD 100) of the lithium-sulfur battery discharged at 1.0 C to an amount of lithium sulfide (LiS) present at DoD 100 of the lithium-sulfur battery discharged at 0.5 C of 80% or more.
