Zinc–nickel batteries are identified as one of the ideal next-generation energy storage technologies because of the advantages of high safety, low cost, and excellent rate performance. However, the limited reversibility of zinc electrode caused by dendrites growth, shape change and side reactions results in poor shelf life and cycling life.
Oppositely, aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) have advantages of safety, abundant resources, low cost, and the potential to store energy at the power plant level. However, the low capacity, poor cycle stability, and low voltage of cathode materials have become one of the limiting factors for the application of AZIBs.

Show Author Information Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have gained attention as promising candidates for next-generation large-scale energy storage systems due to their advantages of improved safety, environmental sustainability, and low cost.
Rechargeable zinc-based batteries have gained considerable attention because of the high safety and the advantages of zinc electrode with high specific capacity, low cost and high abundance [1, 2].
Motivated by the improved electrochemical reactivity and anticorrosion property, zinc–nickel battery was assembled to verify the availability of ZnO@ZnS electrode. The fabrication process is illustrated in Fig. S9.
Moreover, they can provide a stable discharge capacity of higher than 1.9 Ah, which can satisfy the power supply in various applications. For example, the fabricated zinc–nickel batteries connected in series can be used to power the decorative light emitting diode strip (Fig. 4 j).
