Anode for lithium secondary battery and lithium ion secondary battery including the same

1. An anode for a secondary battery, the anode comprising:

an anode collector;

an anode active material coated on the anode collector; and

an anode tab which protrudes from one side of the anode collector and is not coated with an anode active material,

wherein the anode comprises a metal member which is bonded to the anode tab and has higher reactivity or reducibility with respect to a metal oxide than the anode collector,

the metal member being electrically connected and directly physically connected only with the anode tab,

wherein the anode collector and the anode tab comprise copper, and

wherein the metal member comprises a single material of aluminum.

2. The anode for a secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the metal member is point-contacted with one side of the anode tab, or is formed to cover an entire surface of the anode tab.

3. The anode for a secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the metal member is bonded to the anode tab using a laser welding, ultrasonic welding, or resistance welding.

4. The anode for a secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the metal member is bonded with the anode collector without a step height.

5. The anode for a secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the metal member is a rectangular- or elliptical-shaped sheet member or plate-shaped member.

6. The anode for a secondary battery of claim 5 , wherein the metal member has a thickness of 0.001 mm to 5 mm and a length of 0.1 mm to 10 mm.

7. A secondary battery comprising: an electrode assembly including: a cathode formed by coating at least one surface of a metal current collector with an active material, the cathode having a cathode tab protruding from the metal current collector and not coated with the active material, the anode for a secondary battery of claim 1 , and a separator, wherein the electrode assembly is formed by winding the cathode, the anode, and the separator; and a case accommodating the electrode assembly and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, a metal member disposed in the case and not electrically connected with the cathode tab, and a cathode lead and an anode lead which are respectively connected electrically to the cathode tab and the anode tab and protrude from outside of the case.

8. A secondary battery comprising: an electrode assembly including: a plurality of cathodes, each formed by coating at least one surface of a metal current collector with an active material, each cathode having a cathode tab protruding from the metal current collector and not coated with the active material, a plurality of anodes each including an anode collector, an anode active material coated on the anode collector, and an anode tab which protrudes from one side of the anode collector and is not coated with an anode active material, wherein the anode collector and the anode tab comprise copper, and a plurality of separators; wherein the electrode assembly is formed by winding the plurality of cathodes, the plurality of anodes, and the plurality of separators; and a case accommodating the electrode assembly and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, a metal member bonded to the anode tabs of at least one of the plurality of anodes, and disposed in the case, the metal member having higher reactivity or reducibility with respect to a metal oxide than the anode collector, the metal member being electrically connected and directly physically connected only with the anode tab of the at least one of the plurality of anodes, wherein the metal member comprises a single material of aluminum, and a cathode lead and an anode lead which are respectively connected electrically to the plurality of cathode tabs and the plurality of anode tabs and protrude from outside of the case.

9. The secondary battery of claim 8 , wherein the non-aqueous electrolyte solution comprises a single material selected from the group consisting of cyclic carbonate including ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC); diethyl carbonate (DEC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethylmethyl carbonate (EMC), dipropyl carbonate (DPC), dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile, dimethoxyethane, diethoxyethane, tetrahydrofuran, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, and γ-butyrolactone (GBL), or a mixture of two or more thereof.
