Understanding the Super ‐Theoretical Capacity Behavior of VO2 in Aqueous Zn Batteries
VO2 cathode, as an important Zn2+-insertion host, can only provide the maximum capacity of 323  mAh g−1 for a one-electron reaction in theory. How to understand the super-theoretical capacity behavior and multiple charge and discharge platforms of many reported VO2 electrodes. An electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) synergistic in situ oxidation mechanism is first proposed to elaborate this phenomenon. AbstractVO2 material, as a promising intercalation host, is widely investigated not only in aqueous lithium-ion batteries, but also in aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) owing to its stable tunnel-like framew...

Achieving Uniform Li Deposition and Suppressed Electrolyte Flammability in Li ‐Metal Batteries via Designing Localized High‐Concentration Electrolytes
This study introduces a localized high-concentration electrolyte (LHCE) that addresses these issues by employing non-flammable electrolyte components and incorporating carefully designed additives to enhance flame retardancy and low-temperature performance. By incorporating additives to optimize the electrolyte, it is possible to attain inorganic-dominated solid electrolyte interphases on both the cathode and anode. This achievement re sults in a uniform deposition of lithium, as well as the suppression of electrolyte decomposition and cathode deterioration. Consequently, this LHCE achieve over 300 stable cycles for both L...
