In this study, the researchers demonstrated the co-modification of oxygen vacancies and heterojunctions in VO2(B) (VO-VO2/MXene) as a cathode material for zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs). They found that the combination of VO-VO2 with MXene introduces an interfacial electric field, resulting in synergistic enhancement in electrochemical activity. The VO-VO2/MXene composite exhibited high specific capacity and excellent cycling lifespan for ZIBs. This work provides a reliable strategy for the co-modification of metal oxide electrodes with oxygen vacancies and heterostructures.
In this study, we demonstrated the co-modification of oxygen vacancies and heterojunctions in VO2(B) (VO-VO2/ MXene) as a cathode material for zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs). VO2 nanobelts are uniformly distributed on MXene nanosheets, which providing complete electron transport channels during the insertion or de-insertion of Zn2+. The formation of oxygen vacancies provides additional active sites and enhances the conductivity of VO2. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the oxygen vacancies effectively facilitate reversible intercalation/ deintercalation process, which results in rapid intra-crystal zinc ion diffusion. The combination of VO-VO2 with MXene introduces an interfacial electric field, ultimately leading to synergistic enhancement in electrochemical activity. The VO-VO2/MXene composite exhibits the highest specific capacity (287 mAh g-1) at 10 A g-1 and excellent cycling lifespan (253 mAh g-1 after 3000 cycles) for ZIBs. This work provides a reliable strategy for the co-modification of metal oxide electrodes with oxygen vacancies and heterostructures.
