scenario, the utilization of alternative and sustainable energy types, such as solar energy, [2] wind energy, [3] biomass energy, [4] tidal energy, [5] and geothermal energy, [6] is essential. Although these types of energy are generally accessible and clean, the direct storage and transportation of them are extremely difficult, and their highly fluctuating nature makes things even worse. [7] Alternatively, electrical energy is often generated from these energy types and serves as an intermediate between the direct energy harvest and the terminal utilization. In this regard, the development of energy storage systems (ESSs) is essential to provide a more versatile and stable energy supply for individual, household, and industrial applications, which has consequently been extensively investigated. [8] Among all current ESSs, batteries play a major role [9] and have been indispensably utilized for portable electronics, tools, electric vehicles (EVs), and even power grids. [10] Owing to their lightweight, high energy density, and extended cycle life, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), initially developed in the early 1990s, are regarded as a milestone of ESS technologies. [11] Since then, LIBs have been widely applied, which have reshaped our lifestyle. Despite their success in mass production, commercial LIBs still suffer from high cost due to the limited lithium resource and the high cost of other components (e.g., Co-based cathode), [12] which is further worsened by the rigid requirement for their manufacture. Besides, the safety concerns, which stem from the flammable organic electrolyte and highly reactive lithium species, also significantly hinder the deployment of LIBs on a large scale. [13] Considering these limitations of LIBs, it is necessary to develop alternative ESSs with comparable energy/power density but better costeffectiveness and higher safety characteristics. [14] To achieve this, the exploration of high capacity yet relatively inert anode materials and nonflammable electrolytes is essential. Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have been prospected as a new generation of inexpensive and safe ESS devices. Different from typical LIBs, a ZIB is composed of a Zn 2+ ion storage cathode and a Zn metal anode, which is favorable for high anode capacity. Furthermore, aqueous electrolytes are frequently used for ZIBs rather than the organic ones. [15] As a result, energy is stored and released via the reversible Zn stripping/plating at the anode and Zn 2+ insertion/desertion at Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are regarded as a promising candidate for next-generation energy storage systems due to their high safety, resource availability, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, the instability of the Zn metal anode has impeded ZIBs from being reliably deployed in their proposed applications. Specifically, dendrite formation and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on the Zn surface significantly compromise the Coulombic efficiency and cycling stability of ZIBs. In recent years, increasing efforts have been devoted t...

Zinc‐ion batteries are a promising technology due to their high safety, low cost, and environmental friendliness. The dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution on the Zn surface causes unsatisfying durability and efficiency. In article number 2003065, Feng Hou, Liqun Wang, Ji Liang and co‐workers review anodic stabilization strategies with the expectation that this summary will shed light on the future development of novel Zn anodes.

We study the concentration phenomenon for solutions of the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which is nonlocal. We mainly use the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method. Precisely, consider the nonlinear equationHere the exponent α * (s, n) = 4s n−2s for 0 < s < n 2 and α * (s, n) = ∞ for s ≥ n 2 . Then for each non-degenerate critical point z 0 of V , there is a nontrivial solution of equation (0.1) concentrating to z 0 as ε → 0. of science and engineering.
