Metric Options: CountsSelecting 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
Benefiting from the security and low cost, aqueous rechargeable Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) have currently become attractive candidate devices for energy storage. However, the scarcity of appropriate materials served as cathodes is one of the major issues that hinder the development of aqueous ZIBs. VPO 4 is considered as a promising cathode material for energy storage with huge potential windows and high specific capacity due to the stable structure caused by the stable PO 4 polyanionic group and the various oxidation states of V element. However, due to the low valence state of V, as Zn 2+ host structure, PO 4 could not be effectively discharged directly. Herein, by an in situ electrochemical anodic oxidation method, we successfully improved the valence state of V and a higher valence vanadium-based compound (Zn 0.11 VO(PO 4 )•2.5H 2 O) was obtained. As expected, due to the increased valence state of V element and obviously reduced particle size caused the in situ electrochemical oxidation, the assembled Zn/VPO 4 cells exhibits high reversible specific capacity of about 210 mA h g −1 at 50 mA g −1 and a good rates cycling stability. Furthermore, the efficient in situ electrochemical oxidation process of VPO 4 cathode and the reversible Zn 2+ ions insertion/extraction mechanism in the subsequent cycles have been investigated through in situ XRD diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and ex situ XRD photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). This work also provides a novel method to design the high performance Zn ion cathode material.
