1. A lithium-ion battery, comprising:
a positive electrode comprising a positive current collector and a positive electrode active material layer containing lithium cobalt oxide, wherein the positive electrode active material layer is formed on the positive current collector, and the positive electrode active material layer is provided with a first recess accommodating a positive lead being coupled with the positive current collector;
a negative electrode comprising a negative current collector and a negative electrode active material layer containing graphite or silicon, wherein the negative electrode active material layer is formed on the negative current collector, the negative electrode active material layer being provided with a second recess accommodating a negative lead being coupled with the negative current collector; and the negative lead is disposed on a surface of the negative current collector facing away from the center of the battery; and a portion of the negative current collector where the negative lead is disposed extends towards the center of the battery;
a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; and
an electrolyte.
