Graphical Abstract
Zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) face several challenges, such as unstable Zn anodes and a low Zn ion transference number. A unique anion-trap strategy based on the host–guest interaction between β-CD and anions is proposed by Chunyi Zhi, Wenjie Mai, and co-workers in their Research Article (e202210979) to greatly improve the overall performance in terms of both capacity and stability of ZIBs via promoting the Zn ion transfer ability and assisting the formation of reorientated dominant Zn(002) facets on the Zn anode.
