A multilayer body is provided that is used as the negative electrode of a lithium-ion secondary battery that has a high capacity and is excellent in terms of safety, economic efficiency, and cycle characteristics. The multilayer body has a conductive substrate and a composite layer provided on the conductive substrate. The composite layer includes a plurality of particles of silicon oxide and a conductive substance present in gaps between the plurality of particles of silicon oxide. The average particle diameter of the particles of silicon oxide is 1.0 μm or less. The multilayer body further has a conductive layer that is provided on the composite layer and contains a conductive substance. The conductive layer has a thickness of 20 μm or less.
