Abstract
A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery has at least negative electrode, a positive electrode, and a separator between the positive electrode and negative electrode. Negative electrode has columnar first negative electrode active materials that are discretely formed on the outer peripheral surface of negative electrode current collector in the winding direction and can reversibly insert and extract lithium ions, and columnar second negative electrode active materials discretely formed on the inner peripheral surface. The positive electrode has positive electrode mixture layers containing a positive electrode active material capable of reversibly inserting and extracting lithium ions, on both surfaces of a positive electrode current collector. The difference between the porosity generated between first negative electrode active materials in negative electrode and that generated between the second negative electrode active materials in winding is set within 1.1%.
