Vanadium-based oxides with high theoretical specific capacities and open crystal structures are promising cathodes for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). In this work, the confined synthesis can insert metal ions into the interlayer spacing of layered vanadium oxide nanobelts without changing the original morphology. Furthermore, we obtain a series of nanomaterials based on metal-confined nanobelts, and describe the effect of interlayer spacing on the electrochemical performance. The electrochemical properties of the obtained Al V O ⋅ 2.07H O as cathodes for AZIBs are remarkably improved with a high initial capacity of 571.7 mAh ⋅ g at 1.0 A g . Even at a high current density of 5.0 A g , the initial capacity can still reach 205.7 mAh g , with a high capacity retention of 89.2 % after 2000 cycles. This study demonstrates that nanobelts confined with metal ions can significantly improve energy storage applications, revealing new avenues for enhancing the electrochemical performance of AZIBs.
具有高理论比容量和开放晶体结构的钒基氧化物是水系锌离子电池（AZIBs）很有前景的阴极材料。在这项工作中，受限合成可以将金属离子插入层状氧化钒纳米带的层间距中，而不改变其原始形态。此外，我们获得了一系列基于金属受限纳米带的纳米材料，并描述了层间距对电化学性能的影响。所制备的AlVO₂·2.07H₂O作为AZIBs阴极的电化学性能得到显著改善，在1.0 A g⁻¹ 时初始容量高达571.7 mAh g⁻¹。即使在5.0 A g⁻¹ 的高电流密度下，初始容量仍可达到205.7 mAh g⁻¹，在2000次循环后具有89.2%的高容量保持率。这项研究表明，金属离子受限的纳米带可以显著改善储能应用，为提高AZIBs的电化学性能开辟了新途径。
