NEGATIVE ELECTRODE, RECHARGEABLE LITHIUM BATTERY INCLUDING THE SAME, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

The present disclosure relates to a negative electrode for a rechargeable lithium battery, a rechargeable lithium battery including the negative electrode, and a method for manufacturing the negative electrode. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector, and a negative electrode active material layer on the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active material layer includes a first negative electrode active material layer on the negative electrode current collector, and a second negative electrode active material layer on the first negative electrode active material layer. The first negative electrode active material layer includes a first silicon-carbon composite and a first graphite. The second negative electrode active material layer includes a second silicon-carbon composite and a second graphite.
