Self‐Adaptive Hierarchical Hosts with Switchable Repulsive Shielding for Dendrite‐Free Zinc‐Ion Batteries (Adv. Energy Mater. 14/2024)

Aqueous Zinc Batteries In the microscopic world of aqueous zinc batteries, cationic functional groups entangled on the surface of carbon nanotubes act as manipulators, forming switchable repulsive shields on the Zn dendrite that dynamically suppress the dendritic growth, and result in uniform Zn plating.
