Abstract

Provided is a secondary battery and a comb-type electrode. A negative electrode layer sheet formed by stacking a negative electrode active material layer on two surfaces of a negative electrode current collector and a positive electrode layer sheet formed by stacking a positive electrode active material layer on two surfaces of a positive electrode current collector are alternately stacked, and an electrolyte body is interposed between the negative electrode layer sheet and the positive electrode layer sheet adjacent in a stacking direction. Each of the negative electrode current collector and the positive electrode current collector includes a bent connecting part sandwiching a notch part and formed by bending two sides in directions opposite to each other. The bent connecting parts of the negative electrode current collectors adjacent in the stacking direction and the bent connecting parts of the positive electrode current collectors adjacent in the stacking direction are connected.
