Team presents VO₂@VS₂ one-step hydrothermal synthesis for stable and highly efficient Zn-ion storage

Researchers from Qingdao University have synthesized VO2@VS2 hollow nanospheres using a one-step hydrothermal process, creating a highly efficient cathode material for zinc-ion batteries. This powerful heterostructure significantly enhances battery performance, delivering a reversible capacity of 468 mAh g−1 and maintaining 85% retention after 1,000 cycles.
