Vanadium-based cathodes for aqueous zinc-ion batteries: from crystal structures, diffusion channels to storage mechanisms
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of vanadium-based cathode materials is presented in this article, focusing on the correlation between the structures and electrode performances as well as energy storage mechanisms, and promising performance-enhancement strategies are highlighted from aspects such as lattice control, vacancy/defect engineering, and pre-intercalation of cations and molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, it was demonstrated that VO2(B) goes through a conversion reaction when the potential approaching about 1.5 V during the first charging process, and the obtained conversion product Zn3(OH)2V2O7·2H2O shows high zinc ion storage capacity of 330 mAhg g−1 at 0.1 ǫ 0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilizing Zinc Electrodes with a Vanillin Additive in Mild Aqueous Electrolytes.
TL;DR: In this paper, vanillin was used as a bifunctional additive in aqueous electrolyte to stabilize the Zn electrochemistry, and vanillin molecules preferentially absorb in parallel on Zn surface to homogenize the zinc plating and favorably coordinate with Zn2+ to weaken the solvation interaction between H2O and Zn 2+, resulting in a compact, dendrite-free Zn deposition and a stable electrode-electrolyte interface with suppressed hydrogen evolution and hydroxide sulfate formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growing Nanostructured CuO on Copper Foil via Chemical Etching to Upgrade Metallic Lithium Anode.
TL;DR: In this article, the use of nanostructured CuO in situ grown on commercial copper foil (CuO@Cu) via chemical etching as a Li-reservoir substrate to stabilize SEI formation and Li stripping/plating is reported.
