An object of the present invention is to provide an electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery that can ensure a high level of safety even when exposed to severe conditions such as a nail penetration test or crush test, and exhibit excellent output characteristics. The present invention relates to an electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery having a material mixture containing active material particles capable of reversibly absorbing and desorbing lithium, and a current collector that carries the material mixture, wherein a surface of the current collector has recessed portions, and an area occupied by the recessed portions accounts for not less than 30% of an a material mixture carrying area of the current collector. The present invention further relates to an electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery wherein, in a cut surface obtained by simultaneously cutting a material mixture and a current collector vertically to an electrode plane, the maximum depth of recessed portions is not less than 1 mum, or a difference between an average thickness of a current collector and a maximum thickness of the current collector is not less than 0.35 mum. |
