【 摘 要 】

tsA novel strategy of employing Cu nanowire networks to realize superior long-life and high-rate zinc anodes was proposed.Cu nanowire networks could stabilize zinc anodes from multiple aspects, including homogenizing surface electric field and Zn2+ concentration field, inhibiting side reactions and inducing uniform zinc nucleation/deposition.Facets and edge sites of Cu nanowires, especially the latter ones, were revealed to be highly zincophilic.
