A lithium secondary battery includes a negative electrode, a positive electrode, and an electrolyte. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer. The negative electrode active material layer is provided on the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active material layer contains silicon and oxygen. A low oxygen content layer is provided in a portion of the negative electrode active material layer on the negative electrode current collector side, the low oxygen content layer having an oxygen content lower than that of the remaining portion of the negative electrode active material layer. The thickness of the low oxygen content layer is 25% or less of the thickness of the negative electrode active material layer. |
