Porous layered ZnV2O4@C synthesized based on a bimetallic MOF as a stable cathode material for aqueous zinc ion batteries

O during the first charge, which participates in reversible cycling together with ZVO@C during the charging and discharging processes. Moreover, the energy storage mechanism is revealed, in which zinc ions and hydrogen ions jointly participate in intercalation and extraction. The present study demonstrates that constructing composite vanadium-based oxides based on bimetallic organic frameworks as precursor templates is an effective strategy for the development of high-performance cathode materials for AZIBs.
