Claim 0:
1. A lithium ion secondary battery comprising
a structure in which at least one positive electrode and at least one negative electrode are alternately adjacent to each other via a separator,
the at least one positive electrode comprising:
a positive electrode current collector composed of a metal porous body having a three-dimensional network structure;
a first positive electrode active material including a high-capacity active material held on one side of the positive electrode current collector; and
a second positive electrode active material including a high-power active material held on the other side of the positive electrode current collector, and

the at least one negative electrode comprising:
a negative electrode current collector composed of a metal porous body having a three-dimensional network structure;
a first negative electrode active material including a high-capacity active material held on one side of the negative electrode current collector; and
a second negative electrode active material including a high-power active material held on the other side of the negative electrode current collector,

wherein the first positive electrode active material faces the first negative electrode active material adjacent thereto via a first separator, and the second positive electrode active material faces the second negative electrode active material of the negative electrode adjacent thereto via a second separator,
wherein a thickness of the first positive electrode active material is larger than a thickness of the second positive electrode active material, and a thickness of the first negative electrode active material is larger than a thickness of the second negative electrode active material, and
wherein at least one of the thickness of the first positive electrode active material and the thickness of the first negative electrode active material is in a range of 100 to 250 μm, and at least one of the thickness of the second positive electrode active material and the thickness of the second negative electrode active material is in a range of 50 to 150 μm.
