 note = {Two prelithiation processes (shallow Li-ion insertion, and thrice-repeated deep Li-ion　insertion and extraction) were applied to the hard carbon (HC) negative electrode (NE) used in　lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). LIB full-cells were assembled using Li(Ni0.5Co0.2Mn0.3)O2 positive　electrodes (PEs) and the prelithiated HC NEs. The assembled full-cells were charged and discharged　under a low current density, increasing current densities in a stepwise manner, and then constant　under a high current density. The prelithiation process of shallow Li-ion insertion resulted in the　high Coulombic efficiency (CE) of the full-cell at the initial charge-discharge cycles as well as in a　superior rate capability. The prelithiation process of thrice-repeated Li-ion insertion and extraction　attained an even higher CE and a high charge-discharge specific capacity under a low current density.　However, both prelithiation processes decreased the capacity retention during charge-discharge　cycling under a high current density, ascertaining a trade-off relationship between the increased CE　and the cycling performance. Further elimination of the irreversible capacity of the HC NE was　responsible for the higher utilization of both the PE and NE, attaining higher initial performances,　but allowing the larger capacity to fade throughout charge-discharge cycling.},
