Rechargeable aqueous batteries with Zn2+ as a media-ion are promising candidates for large-scale energy storage because of their intrinsic safety, low-cost and high energy-intensity. Vanadium based cathodic materials have gained significant attention in aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) due to their high capacity and satisfactory cycle stability. However, more facile and efficient fabrication methods should be explored when considering future realistic application. Herein, commercial V2O5 cathodes with oxygen vacancies were fabricated through ...
