Original Abstract Submitted

An electrode and a lithium battery including the same are provided. The electrode includes an electrode active material layer and two or more electrode current collectors arranged along a thickness direction within the electrode active material layer, wherein the two or more electrode current collectors include an upper electrode current collector adjacent a top surface of the electrode active material layer; and a lower electrode current collector adjacent a bottom surface of the electrode active material layer, wherein the electrode active material layer includes an internal electrode active material layer between the upper electrode current collector and the lower electrode current collector; and an external electrode active material layer outside of the upper electrode current collector and the lower electrode current collector, and wherein the two or more electrode current collectors include a porous structure.
