Electrochemical Hydrophobic Tri‐layer Interface Rendered Mechanically Graded Solid Electrolyte Interface for Stable Zinc Metal Anode

The aqueous zinc-ion battery is promising as grid scale energy storage device, but hindered by the instable electrode/electrolyte interface. Herein, we report the lean-water ionic liquid electrolyte for aqueous zinc metal batteries. The lean-water ionic liquid electrolyte creates the hydrophobic tri-layer interface assembled by first two layers of hydrophobic OTF
