LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing a lithium secondary battery having a high energy density. The method of manufacturing a lithium secondary battery having a positive electrode, a negative electrode not having a negative-electrode active material, and a separator includes a step of applying a gel electrolyte to one of the surfaces of the separator and a step of forming the negative electrode on the surface of the gel electrolyte, wherein the negative electrode is thinner than the gel electrolyte.
