Abstract

Disclosed is an electrode material for a lithium secondary battery, a lithium secondary battery comprising the same, and a method for preparing the electrode material for a lithium secondary battery. The electrode material for a lithium secondary battery includes Si as a principal component, wherein the interplanar spacing of an Si(111) surface between 3.15 Å and 3.20 Å using X-ray diffraction. This is achieve by first alloying Si with an element selected from the group consisting of Al, B, P, Ge, Sn, Pb, Ni, Co, Mn, Mo, Cr, V, Cu, Fe, Ni, W, Ti, Zn, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and combinations thereof, and then eluting X from the resulting alloy.
