“…To date, research efforts on cathode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries have been dominated by manganese oxides, vanadium oxides, and Prussian blue analogs, similar to magnesium-ion battery systems . However, recently, molybdenum-based sulfides and oxides, such as MoS 2 , Mo 6 S 8 , and MoO 3 , have gained traction as cathode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. − These materials have shown promise as potential cathode candidates due to their high theoretical capacities originated from the Mo 6+ /Mo 4+ redox, as well as excellent rate capabilities and cycling performances. Additionally, molybdates, such as CoMoO 4 , and NiMoO 4 , have be employed as cathode materials in alkaline-based aqueous rechargeable zinc-ion batteries. − However, alkaline-based systems suffer from severe dendrite formation on the zinc metal anode.…”
