Long‐Life Pillar[5]quinone Cathode for Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries by Prof. Serkan Yeşilot, Yasemin Solmaz, Dr. Nazmiye Kılıç, Burcu Unal, Prof. Ozlem Sel, Prof. Rezan Demir‐Cakan

“…Abstract Aqueous zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) are currently gaining a significant amount of attention as a low‐cost and high safety energy storage option. While mostly inorganic structures are used as cathode materials in aqueous zinc batteries, these materials undergo structural degradation, therefore, alternative organic cathodes are expected to be developed to replace inorganic materials in aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs). …”
