Abstract
A non-aqueous electrolyte cell having high discharge capacity, an improved capacity upkeep ratio and optimum cyclic characteristics. The non-aqueous electrolyte cell has a cell device including a strip-shaped cathode material and a strip-shaped anode material, layered and together via a separator and coiled a plural number of times, a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, and a cell can for accommodating cell device and the non-aqueous electrolyte solution. The cathode employs a cathode active material containing a compound of the olivinic structure represented by the general formula LiFeMPO, where M is at least one selected from the group consisting of Mn, Cr, Co, Cu, Ni, V, Mo, Ti, Zn, Al, Ga, Mg, B and Nb, with 0.05≦x≦1.2 and 0≦y≦0.8, with the compound being used either singly or in combination with other materials. The ratio of an inner diameter d to an outer diameter D of cell device is selected so that 0.05<d/D<0.5.
