An anode and a lithium ion battery employing the same are provided. The anode includes a lithium-containing layer and a single-ion conductive layer. The single-ion conductive layer includes an inorganic particle, a single-ion conductor polymer, and a binder. The single-ion conductor polymer has a first repeat unit of Formula (I), a second repeat unit of Formula (II), a third repeat unit of Formula (III), and a fourth repeat unit of Formula (IV) n nwherein R 1 is O − M + , SO 3 − M + , N(SO 2 F) − M + , N(SO 2 CF 3 ) − M + , N(SO 2 CF 2 CF 3 ) − M + , COO − M + , or PO 4 − M + ; M + is Li + , Na + , K + , Cs + , or a combination thereof; and R 2 is CH 3 , CH 2 CH 3 , or CH 2 CH 2 OCH 2 CH 3 . In particular, the weight ratio of the inorganic particle to the sum of the single-ion conductor polymer and the binder is from 4:1 to 9:1, and the weight ratio of the binder to the single-ion conductor polymer is from 1:1 to 9:1. |
