Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Flexible battery with a smart electrochromic function of changing color in the electrochemical process reveals great application potentials in the field of intelligent electronics. However, Ni//Zn battery with an electricity visual alerting function has seldom been reported by now. Herein, we designed a flexible Ni//Zn battery, assembled by the NiCo bimetallic hydroxide/Ni/indium tin oxide (NiCo BH/Ni/ITO) flexible electrode with an electrochromic feature. By optimizing the thickness of the middle Ni layer, the NiCo BH/Ni/ ITO electrode shows a coloration efficiency of 59.89 cm C and a capacity of 7.15 µA h cm at a current density of 0.1 mA cm. Correspondingly, the flexible electrochromic Ni//Zn battery shows a high energy density of 12.69 µW h cm at a power density of 160 µW cm, outperforming those of transparent flexible supercapacitors and electrochromic batteries reported in literatures. Moreover, the flexible electrochromic Ni//Zn battery displays reversible color change during charging and discharging processes, rendering it a novel function to monitor the battery residual electricity by visual inspection.
