In a lithium secondary cell of the intercalation type, with a positive electrode which includes a lithiated transition metal oxide LixMyO2, wherein 0.5</=x/y</=1.0 and M is a metal from Groups VIIb and VIIIb (preferably Co, Ni, Mn), and with a negative electrode formed of a carbon product with disordered crystalline structure produced from organic materials by delayed coking, both electrodes are uncharged in the initial assembly state, but the negative electrode is doped with lithium through prelithiation in an amount which is irreversibly consumed in the formation of ion conductive surface layers. This permits a loss-free deintercalation of any subsequently introduced lithium so that the cell exhibits, from its inception, a largely stable capacity during cyclic charge/discharge operation.
