Oxygen-deficient ammonium vanadate for flexible aqueous zinc batteries with high energy density and rate capability at-30 °C

Tao He et al.

Summary: The oxygen-deficient NH4V4O10-x·nH(2)O (NVOH) microspheres are synthesized and used as cathodes for aqueous zinc batteries (AZBs), demonstrating a high energy density, fast Zn2+ diffusion, and excellent electrochemical performance over a wide temperature range. The NVOH shows a capacity retention of 100% after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g(-1) and around 94% after 2600 cycles at 2 A g(-1) and -30 degrees C. Investigation into the mechanism of the process reveals that the surface capacitive behaviors contribute dominantly to the capacity, while diffusion-controlled capacity decay causes the capacity attenuation. Flexible AZBs can power portable electronics steadily under different bending states, showing great potential for wide-temperature wearable devices.
