Exploring suitable high-capacity V2O5-based cathode materials is essential for the rapid advancement of aqueous zinc ion batteries(ZIBs).However,the typical problem of slow Zn2+diffusion kinetics has severely limited the feasibility of such materials.In this work,unique hydrated vanadates(CaVO,BaVO)were obtained by intercalation of Ca2+or Ba2+into hydrated vanadium pentoxide.In the CaVO//Zn and BaVO//Zn batteries systems,the former delivered up to a 489.8 mAh g-1 discharge specific capac-ity at 0.1 A g-1.Moreover,the remarkable energy density of 370.07 Wh kg-1 and favorable cycling sta-bility yard outperform BaVO,pure V2O5,and many reported cathodes of similar ionic intercalation compounds.In addition,pseudocapacitance analysis,galvanostatic intermittent titration(GITT)tests,and Trasatti analysis revealed the high capacitance contribution and Zn2+diffusion coefficient of CaVO,while an in-depth investigation based on EIS elucidated the reasons for the better electrochemical perfor-mance of CaVO.Notably,ex-situ XRD,XPS,and TEM tests further demonstrated the Zn2+insertion/extrac-tion and Zn-storage mechanism that occurred during the cycle in the CaVO//Zn battery system.This work provides new insights into the intercalation of similar divalent cations in vanadium oxides and offers new solutions for designing cathodes for high-capacity aqueous ZIBs.
