Abstract Zn‐based batteries are safe, low cost, and environmentally friendly, as well delivering the highest energy density of all aqueous battery systems. However, application is being seriously hindered by uneven electrostripping/electroplating Zn on anodes, which always leads to enlarged polarization (capacity fading) or even cell shorting (low cycling stability). How a porous nano‐CaCO 3 coating can guide uniform position‐selected stripping/plating ‐layer/Zn foil interfaces reported...
As a promising anode for aqueous batteries, Zn metal shows number of attractive advantages such as low cost, redox potential, high capacity, and environmental benignity. Nevertheless, the quick growth dendrites/protrusions on "hostless" anodes not only enlarges batteries' internal resistance but also causes sudden shorting failure by piercing separators. Herein, we report novel heterogeneous seed method to guide morphology evolution plated Zn. The seeds are sputtering-deposited...
Zn-ion batteries have been widely investigated due to their low cost, high safety and eco-friendliness. We comprehensively evaluate the performance of oxides (MoO3, TiO2, Fe3O4), sulfides (MoS2, WS2, MnS) borides (TiB2 ZrB2) in zinc ion battery systems. It is found that MnS a good alternative cathode material with reversible capacity 221 mA h g-1, while other materials show different behaviours.
ZnSe is regarded as a promising anode material for energy storage due to its high theoretical capacity and environment friendliness. Nevertheless, it still significant challenge obtain superior electrode materials with stable performance owing the serious volume change aggregation upon cycling. Herein, willow-leaf-like nitrogen-doped carbon-coated (ZnSe@NC) composite synthesized through facile solvothermal subsequent selenization process beneficial expose more active sites facilitate fast...
High-performance Zn||I2 batteries were established by coating zeolite protecting layers. The Zn2+-conductive layer suppresses I3- shuttling, Zn corrosion/dendrite growth. Zeolite-Zn||I2 achieve long lifespan (91.92% capacity retention after 5600 cycles), high coulombic efficiencies (99.76% in average) and large (203-196 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1) simultaneously. intrinsically safe battery, one of the leading candidates aiming to replace traditional Pb-acid batteries, is still seriously suffering...
Zinc–iodine (Zn/I2) batteries are recognized as a kind of leading candidate for large-scale energy storage systems, owing to the high-capacity dissolution–deposition reactions on both electrodes. Nevertheless, lifespan Zn/I2 is severely limited by uncontrolled shuttling triiodide ions (I3–) and unfavorable side Zn anodes. Herein, an alginate-based polyanionic hydrogel electrolyte designed synthesized ion exchange Zn2+-induced cross-linking. The immobile, negatively charged chains skeleton...
Abstract Metal sulfides have shown great promise for sodium‐ion batteries due to their excellent redox reversibility and relatively high capacity. However, metal generally suffer from sluggish charge transport serious volume change during the charge–discharge process. Herein, potato chip‐like nitrogen‐doped carbon‐coated ZnS/Sb 2 S 3 heterojunction (ZnS/Sb @NC) is precisely synthesized through a sulfurization reaction, subsequent cation exchange process between Zn 2+ Sb 3+ . The theoretical...

ABSTRACT Heterogeneous structure and carbon coating are important ways to enhance the reaction kinetics cycling stability of metal phosphides as anode materials for sodium‐ion batteries. Therefore, nitrogen‐doped carbon‐capped triphasic heterostructure Cu 3 P/Co 2 P/CoP@NC stands nitrogen doped nanorods were designed synthesized through a combination phosphide carbonization.

Developing a high-performance noninvasive probe for precise cancer theranostics is very challenging but urgently required. Herein, novel Au nanoclusters (NCs)-based was designed via ligand engineering by conjugating photoluminescent (PL) Au44 NCs in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) with aromatic photoacoustic (PA)/photothermal molecules through click chemistry. This design bypasses incompatibility dilemma between photoluminescence attributes and PA/photothermal...
