STRIP-SHAPED ELECTRODE USED FOR CYLINDRICAL JELLY ROLL AND LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY COMPRISING SAME

The present disclosure relates to a strip-like electrode for use in a cylindrical jelly roll which includes a strip-like electrode assembly wound cylindrically to form a hollow cavity at the core portion thereof, and a lithium secondary battery including the same. The strip-like electrode includes: a strip-like electrode current collector; a first electrode active material layer formed on at least one surface of the strip-like electrode current collector; and a second electrode active material layer formed on the first electrode active material layer, wherein the second electrode active material layer is formed to have a length smaller than the length of the first electrode active material layer so that a part of one longitudinal surface of the first electrode active material layer can be exposed to the outside.
