The electrolyte may be any common non-aqueous electrolyte which smoothly conducts ions involved in charge and discharge of a battery, in the common lithium secondary battery. As an example, the non-aqueous electrolyte may include a non-aqueous solvent and a lithium salt. As a non-limiting example, the lithium salt contained in the electrolyte may be a salt providing lithium cations and one or more anions selected from the group comprising NO3, N(CN)2?, BF4?, ClO4?, PF6?, (CF3)2PF4?, (CF3)3PF3?, (CF3)4PF2?, (CF3)5PF?, (CF3)6P?, CF3SO3?, CF3CF2SO3?, (CF3SO2)2N?, (FSO2)2N?, CF3CF2(CF3)2CO?, (CF3SO2)2CH?, (SF5)3C?, (CF3SO2)3C?, CF3(CF2)7SO3?, CF3CO2?, CH3CO2?, SCN?, and (CF3CF2SO2)2N?.
