Original Abstract Submitted

A secondary battery including an electrode assembly having a jelly-roll shape, a positive electrode, and a negative electrode including a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer on the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active material layer includes a first region in contact with the negative electrode current collector including a silicon-containing compound and natural graphite as an active material, a mixed region in contact with the first region including a silicon-containing compound, natural graphite and artificial graphite as an active material, and a second region in contact with the mixed region including a silicon-containing compound and artificial graphite as an active material. The secondary battery has a high form factor applied to medium and large scale devices and may be a cylindrical secondary battery with improved fast charging characteristics, reduced swelling, suppressed lithium plating and high capacity characteristics.
