NOVELTY - The battery has a positive electrode comprising a positive electrode active material e.g. lithium-cobalt composite oxide, and a negative electrode i.e. working electrode (1), comprising a negative electrode active material i.e. carbon, and a non-aqueous electrolyte i.e. gel type polymer electrolyte, to improve the negative electrode active material of the negative electrode. A mixture of zinc and cadmium metals has average particle diameter in a range of from 0.25 micrometer to 100 micrometer. The metal is formed by an atomizing technique.    USE - Non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery for use as a power supply in a mobile electric device e.g. mobile phone, note book personal computer (PC) and personal digital assistant (PDA).    ADVANTAGE - The negative electrode contains the negative electrode active material and a non-aqueous electrolyte to improve the negative electrode active material, and zinc or cadmium is mixed with the negative electrode active material, thus achieving high capacity, high energy density and excellent charge/discharge cycle characteristics and improving collectivity of the negative electrode. The battery is designed such that diameter of the negative electrode active material is small, a deactivated site and surface area are increased and conductivity in the negative electrode is improved. The battery is designed such that a gap between a particle of graphite and a particle of zinc is ensured under high filling density and perviousness of the electrolyte is improved.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The negative electrode active material has carbon i.e. graphite. The positive electrode active material includes lithium-nickel composite oxide, lithium-manganese composite oxide, lithium-nickel-cobalt composite oxide, lithium-manganese-cobalt composite oxide, lithium-nickel-cobalt-manganese composite oxide, lithium-nickel-cobalt-aluminum composite oxide, manganese dioxide, polyphosphoric oxide and metal oxide such as vanadium oxide and sulfide. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a method for fabricating a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
