Abstract
A lithium secondary battery prepared to a negative electrode free battery, and forming lithium metal on a negative electrode current collector through charge. The lithium secondary battery forms lithium metal while being blocked from the atmosphere, and since production of a surface oxide layer (native layer) formed on an existing negative electrode is fundamentally blocked, resulting battery efficiency and lifetime property decline may be prevented.
