Abstract
A lithium electrode including: a lithium metal layer; an aluminum oxide layer on the lithium metal layer; and a carbon layer on the aluminum oxide layer, and a lithium secondary battery including the same. The aluminum oxide layer can prevent a direct reaction between a non-aqueous electrolyte and a lithium metal layer, and particularly, since the aluminum oxide layer does not have electrical conductivity, lithium deposition occurs between the lithium metal layer and aluminum oxide layer. Thus lithium metal is not deposited on the protection layer. In addition, the carbon layer functions for producing a stable solid electrolyte interface film thereon.
