Abstract
Ammonium vanadate (NVO) often has unsatisfactory electrochemical performance due to the irreversible removal of NH4 + during the reaction. Herein, layered DMF-NVO nanoflake arrays (NFAs) grown on highly conductive carbon cloth (CC) are employed as the binder-free cathode (DMF-NVO NFAs/CC), which produces an enlarged interlayer spacing of 12.6 Å (against 9.5 Å for NH4 V4 O10 ) by effective N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) intercalation. Furthermore, the strong attraction of highly polar carbonyl and ammonium ions in DMF can stabilize the lattice structure, and low-polar alkyl groups can interact with the weak electrostatic generated by Zn2+ , which allows Zn2+ to be freely intercalated. The DMF-NVO NFAs/CC//Zn battery exhibits an impressive high capacity of 536 mAh g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 , excellent rate capability, and cycling performance. The results of density functional theory simulation demonstrate that the intercalation of DMF can significantly reduce the band gap and the diffusion barrier of Zn2+ , and can also accommodate more Zn2+ . The assembled flexible aqueous rechargeable zinc ion batteries (FARZIBs) exhibit outstanding energy density and power density, up to 436 Wh kg-1 at 400 W kg-1 , and still remains 180 Wh kg-1 at 4000 W kg-1 . This work can provide a reference for the design of cathode materials for high-performance FARZIBs.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have recently attracted people's extensive attention in their application in energy storage systems resulting from their exclusive characteristics of low cost and environmental compatibility. However, finding suitable cathode materials continues to be the major challenge. Polyoxovanadates (POVs), as an important branch of polyoxometalates (POMs), are considered as a promising electrode material for reversible aqueous ZIBs relying on the flexible valence state of V. Herein, POVs (K2 Zn2 V10 O28 : KZVO) are reported as an advanced cathode for storing Zn2+ , which delivers a high discharge capacity of 223.4 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 , considerable energy density (182.9 Wh kg-1 ) and power density (40.38 W kg-1 ), and robust cyclic performance. In addition, the dynamic properties of the KZVO/Zn battery are revealed by pseudocapacitance analysis and GITT tests. Meanwhile, the storage mechanism of Zn2+ is further analyzed by ex situ XRD, XPS, TEM, and HRTEM. Overall, this work not only draws up a cathode material for the POMs system in aqueous ZIBs, but also demonstrates that POMs are the rising star in energy storage and electric energy applications.

Abstract
The rapid depletion of lithium resources and the increasing demand for electrical energy storage have stimulated the pursuit of emerging electrochemical energy storage. Aqueous zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) are highly sought after for their low cost, high safety, and increased environmental compatibility. However, the search for suitable cathode materials is still tricky for a wide range of researchers. Vanadium oxides (Vx Oy ), with their abundant vanadium valence, easily deformable V-O polyhedrons, and tunable chemical compositions, are of significant advantage in developing emerging materials. This work provides a detailed review of different Vx Oy for the application in aqueous ZIBs. The current problems and optimization strategies of Vx Oy cathode materials are systematically discussed. Finally, the current challenges and possible directions for future research of Vx Oy cathode materials in aqueous ZIBs are presented.

Abstract
Zinc ion batteries have become a new type of energy storage device because of the low cost and high safety. Among the various cathode materials, vanadium-oxygen compounds stand out due to their high theoretical capacity and variable chemistry valence state. Here, we construct a 3D spongy hydrated vanadium dioxide composite (Od-HVO/rG) with abundant oxygen vacancy defects and graphene modifications. Thanks to the stable structure and abundant active sites, Od-HVO/rG exhibits superior electrochemical properties. In aqueous electrolyte, the Od-HVO/rG cathode provides high initial charging capacity (428.6 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g), impressive rate performance (186 mAh/g even at 20 A/g), and cycling stability, which can still maintain 197.5 mAh/g after 2000 cycles at 10 A/g. Also, the superior specific energy of 245.3 Wh/kg and specific power of 14142.7 W/kg are achieved. In addition, MXene/Od-HVO/rG cathode materials are prepared and PAM/ZnSO4 hydrogel electrolytes are applied to assemble flexible soft pack quasi-solid-state zinc ion batteries, which also exhibit excellent flexibility and cycling stability (206.6 mAh/g after 2000 cycles). This work lays the foundation for advances in rechargeable aqueous zinc ion batteries, while revealing the potential for practical applications of flexible energy storage devices.

Abstract
Although lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have many advantages, they cannot satisfy the demands of numerous large energy storage industries owing to their high cost, low security, and low resource richness. Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) with low cost, high safety, and high synergistic efficiency have attracted an increasing amount of attention and are considered a promising choice to replace LIBs. However, the existing cathode materials for ZIBs have many shortcomings, such as poor electron and zinc ion conductivity and complex energy storage mechanisms. Thus, it is crucial to identify a cathode material with a stable structure, substantial limit, and suitability for ZIBs. In this review, several typical cathode materials for ZIBs employed in recent years and their detailed energy storage mechanisms are summarized, and various methods to enhance the electrochemical properties of ZIBs are briefly introduced. Finally, the existing problems and expected development directions of ZIBs are discussed.

Abstract
Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) are considered very promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries. However, the low reversibility and slow diffusion of zinc ions in the positive electrode limit their commercial applications. Herein, we successfully prepared the metallic 1T phase of MoS2 (1T-MoS2) with a nano interlayer spacing of 1.025 nm through a simple one-step hydrothermal method, and used it as a cathode in ZIBs. By adjusting the hydrothermal temperature, the crystallinity and Zn2+ storage capacity of MoS2 as a cathode for ZIBs are effectively improved. MoS2 had the most favorable structure when the hydrothermal temperature was 200 °C, such as larger layer spacing and more lattice distortion. When employed as a cathode, 200-MoS2 exhibited a considerable specific capacity of 125 mA h g-1 at the current density of 2 A g-1 and high capacity retention of 100% after 500 cycles. This strategy provides a new option for improving the performance of the layered structure as an aqueous zinc ion battery.
