Abstract

A lithium-ion secondary battery and a manufacturing method thereof. A negative electrode plate of the lithium-ion secondary battery is a prelithiated negative electrode plate, a negative electrode active substance is a carbon-based negative electrode material, and the carbon-based negative electrode material and a pre-intercalated lithium metal in the negative electrode plate are lithiated to form a prelithiated compound LiC x , where x=12˜150. A capacity of a unit area of the negative electrode active substance/a capacity of a unit area of a positive electrode active substance=1.2˜2.1. The capacity of a unit area of the negative electrode active substance/(the capacity of a unit area of the positive electrode active substance+an amount of active lithium deintercalatable from the pre-lithiated compound LiC x in a unit area of a negative electrode film)≥1.10.
