Atomic Sn sites on nitrogen-doped carbon as a zincophilic and hydrophobic protection layer for stable Zn anodes
Yijie Wang, Yan Tan, Chuanwei Cheng
Abstract
A 3D coating of atomic zincophilic Sn sites anchored on NC supports on Zn anodes are designed to simultaneously guide Zn nucleation, boost Zn 2+ diffusion, regulate electric field distribution, inhibit dendrite growth, and prevent side reactions.
