Synergy between central zinc coordination and extended π-conjugation: Zinc phthalocyanine as an optimal artificial interphase for highly reversible aqueous zinc metal anodes

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries are promising for low-cost, safe large-scale energy storage, yet their practical deployment is plagued by zinc dendrite growth and water-induced side reactions. Herein, four structurally defined conjugated macrocycles (Tpp, Pc, ZnTpp, ZnPc) are employed...
