Reviews of High‐Longevity Aqueous Zinc Metal Batteries Achieved by Programmable Interface Architectures
Source abstract
Abstract
Aqueous zinc metal batteries (AZMBs) are considered ideal ones for next‐generation energy storage devices due to their high theoretical specific capacity and intrinsic safety. However, uncontrollable zinc dendrite growth, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and interface corrosion prohibit the commercialization of AZMBs. The deposition behaviors of Zn 2+ /Zn 0 on metallic Zn surface can be effectively regulated by constructing artificial interphase layers (AILs) to control desolvation and ion/atom flux. In this work, the intrinsic mechanism and interface failure of Zn 2+ electrodeposition behaviors are initially revealed, providing a theoretical basis for interface issues. To address these problems, the design strategies from carbon materials, zincophilic alloys, and inorganic/organic compound layers provide an in‐depth analysis of the relationship between material structure and performance, establishing a theoretical foundation for the development of programmable interface architecture. In light of practical application requirements, the future direction is envisioned and pioneered, aiming to promote the practical application process of AZMBs.
