Abstract
A positive electrode active material includes a lithium transition metal oxide, in which a cobalt content in the lithium transition metal oxide is less than a manganese content, wherein at least one of nickel, cobalt, and manganese in the lithium transition metal oxide has a concentration gradient that gradually changes from a center of a particle to a surface thereof, the positive electrode active material is in the form of a secondary particle formed by agglomeration of primary particles, and a ratio in which angles between c-axis directions, which are measured at at least 8 points on a surface of the positive electrode active material by TEM analysis, and a growth direction of the particle at the measuring point satisfy 85° to 95° is 60% or more.
