負極140は、負極活物質を有さず、すなわち、リチウム及びリチウムのホストとなる活物質を有しないものである。したがって、リチウム2次電池100は、負極活物質を有する負極を備えるリチウム2次電池と比較して、電池全体の体積及び質量が小さく、エネルギー密度が原理的に高い。ここで、リチウム2次電池100は、リチウム金属が負極140上に析出し、及び、その析出したリチウム金属が電解溶出することによって充放電が行われる。
電解液は、電解質及び溶媒を含有し、イオン伝導性を有する溶液であり、リチウムイオンの導電経路として作用する。電解液は、セパレータ130に浸潤させてもよく、正極120とセパレータ130と負極140との積層体と共に密閉容器に封入してもよい。
リチウム2次電池100において、充電、特に初期充電により、負極140の表面に固体電解質界面層(SEI層)が形成されると推察されるが、リチウム2次電池100は、SEI層を有しなくてもよい。形成されるSEI層は、上記化合物(1)~(4)の上記式(A)で表される部分、及び上記式(B)で表される部分の少なくとも一方に由来する有機化合物を含むと推察されるが、例えば、その他の、リチウムを含有する無機化合物、及びリチウムを含有する有機化合物等を含んでいてもよい。
