“…7(f) displays the maximum specific capacity and energy at respective current rates. As can be seen, our quasi-solid-state Zn8MnO@NSC device delivers an energy density of as high as 411 W h kg À1 even at a high current density, better than or comparable to those of most of the recent ZIBs, for instance, the quasi-solid-state Zn8ZnMn 2 O 4 battery (273 W h kg À1 ), 62 Zn8a-MnO battery (146 W h kg À1 ), 63 Zn8Mn-doped K 0.23 V 2 O 5 battery (122 W h kg À1 ), 64 Zn8MnO 2 /CNT battery (385 W h kg À1 ), 65 and aqueous Zn8Mn 2 O 3 battery (365 W h kg À1 ), 66 Zn8MnO 2 / Mn 2 O 3 nanocomposite battery (386 W h kg À1 ), 67 Zn8CNT/MnO 2 -PPy battery (348 W h kg À1 ), 68 Zn8N-VO-MnO 1Àx battery (283 W h kg À1 ), 21 Zn8d-MnO 2 battery (319 W h kg À1 ), 69 Zn8a-(Mn 2 O 3 -MnO 2 ) battery (302 W h kg À1 ), 70 Zn8amorphous a-MnO 2 battery (273 Wh kg À1 ), 71 Zn8todorokite-type MnO 2 battery (139 W h kg À1 ), 59 Zn8g-MnO 2 battery (379 W h kg À1 ), 72 Zn8CoMn-PBA HSs battery (164 W h kg À1 ), 73 Zn8MnO battery (347 W h kg À1 ), 39 Zn8ZnMn 2 O 4 /Mn 2 O 3 nanocomposite battery (287 W h kg À1 ), 74 and Zn8pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone battery (242 W h kg À1 ), 75 suggesting that the MnO@NSC is an ideal cathode material for ZIBs.…”
