Abstract

Provided are a porous silicon-based anode active material including porous SiOparticles (0≤x<2) having surfaces coated with an oxide layer, a method of preparing the same, and a lithium secondary battery including the porous silicon-based anode active material. Since the anode active material includes an oxide layer formed on the porous SiOparticles (0≤x<2), a reactivity between the anode active material and an electrolyte solution may be reduced and, as a result, an electrical short circuit in an electrode may be minimized. Also, since a plurality of pores is included in surfaces or the surfaces and inside of the SiOparticles, a thickness change rate of the electrode generated during charge and discharge of a secondary battery may be reduced and lifetime characteristics may be improved.
