Nonaqueous electrolyte negative electrode for a secondary battery

A can relieve the stress caused by the volume change of the active material due to charge and discharge, to provide a negative electrode for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery capable of preventing the deformation of the negative electrode. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery negative electrode 10 includes an active material layer 2 containing particles 2a of the active material. The active material layer 2, the metal material 4 is penetrated between the particles deposited by electroplating. Negative electrode 10 has a large number of vertical holes 5 extending in the thickness direction of the aperture to and active material layer 2 in at least one surface. A pair of current collecting layer 3a in contact with the electrolyte, 3b further includes a, an active material layer 2 is interposed collector layer 3a, between 3b. .FIELD 1
