A method for manufacturing a negative electrode for a lithium secondary battery is provided in which the method is capable of effectively performing pre-lithiation. While a negative electrode is compressed with a press, a lithium alloy layer is formed on a portion in contact with a negative electrode active material layer of upper and lower plates of the press, and a negative electrode tab is electrically connected to the press through a connection part respectively disposed on the upper and lower plates of the press, and thus, it is possible to manufacture a negative electrode for a lithium secondary battery in which the pre-lithiation of the negative electrode may be performed at time of compression even without a separate pre-lithiation process.

Method for manufacturing negative electrode for lithium secondary battery

A method of preparing a lithium secondary battery is provided which may effectively perform pre-lithiation, wherein, a closed square band-shaped lithium foil having an opening formed at a center thereof is prepared during the preparation of the lithium secondary battery, and a negative electrode is disposed in the opening of the lithium foil, but pre-lithiation of the negative electrode may be performed without a separate pre-lithiation process by disposing the negative electrode and the lithium foil so as not to overlap with each other and disposing a negative electrode tab so as to be in contact with the lithium foil.
