Abstract

A negative electrode plate includes: a negative current collector; a first negative active material layer close to the negative current collector and disposed on at least one surface of the negative current collector, where the first negative active material layer includes a first negative active material; and a second negative active material layer. The second negative active material layer includes a second negative active material. The first negative active material layer is located between the second negative active material layer and the negative current collector. An interlayer spacing of the first negative active material is smaller than an interlayer spacing of the second negative active material.
