In the global trend towards carbon neutrality, sustainable energy conversion and storage
technologies are of vital significance to tackle the energy crisis and climate change …

Electrolytes and the associated interphases constitute the critical components to support the
emerging battery chemistries that promise tantalizing energy but involve drastic phase and …

Thousands of articles have been reported to enhance the electrochemical
stability/reversibility of the Zn-metal anode (ZMA). However, some scientific concepts …

The reversibility and cyclability of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are largely determined
by the stabilization of the Zn anode. Therefore, a stable anode/electrolyte interface capable …

Abstract Aqueous Zn‐ion batteries (AZIBs) have attracted much attention due to their
excellent safety, cost‐effectiveness, and eco‐friendliness thereby being considered as one …

Chang Li is a PhD candidate in the Department of Chemistry at University of Waterloo, under
the supervision of Professor Linda F. Nazar. He received his bachelor's degree from the …

Aqueous zinc batteries are appealing devices for cost-effective and environmentally
sustainable energy storage. However, the zinc metal deposition at the anode strongly …

Rechargeable aqueous zinc batteries are finding their niche in stationary storage
applications where safety, cost, scalability and carbon footprint matter most. However …

As potential alternatives to conventional inorganic materials, organic compounds are
attractive for use as the cathodes of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), due to their high …

Anode-free metal batteries can in principle offer higher energy density, but this requires
them to have extraordinary Coulombic efficiency (> 99.7%). Although Zn-based metal …
