Considering this reason, when iron sulfide and cupric sulfide are added to the positive electrode having cupric oxide as an active material in the battery of the present invention, decomposition of cupric oxide is suppressed and iron sulfide and cupric sulfide are suppressed. Since sulfur produced by dissolving a part of copper is deposited as a film on the surface of the lithium negative electrode, even if cupric oxide is decomposed and metallic copper is dissolved in the electrolytic solution, metallic copper remains on the surface of the lithium negative electrode. It is considered that since the precipitation can be suppressed, the increase in internal resistance is suppressed and the storage characteristics are improved. Since the sulfur film is easily destroyed by discharge, it does not adversely affect the discharge characteristics.
