NEGATIVE ELECTRODE FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL DEVICE, AND ELECTROCHEMICAL DEVICE

A negative electrode for an electrochemical device includes a negative electrode core material and a negative electrode material layer supported on the negative electrode core material. The negative electrode material layer contains a carbon material. A surface layer portion of the negative electrode material layer includes a first layer containing lithium carbonate and a second layer containing a solid electrolyte. At least a portion of the second layer covers at least a portion of the surface of the carbon material with the first layer interposed therebetween.
