Abstract
A method of producing an active material powder includes (i) an attachment step of obtaining a powder including an active material particle, which stores and releases lithium ions at a potential of 4.5 V or higher based on Li, and a coating layer precursor, which is attached to a surface of the active material particle, by attaching an alkoxide solution containing lithium ions and niobium ions to the surface of the active material particle and drying the attached alkoxide solution; and (ii) a heating step of forming a coating layer on the surface of the active material particle by heating the powder obtained in the attachment step to be within a temperature range of 120° C. to 200° C.
