“…[ 5 ] The construction of artificial interfacial layer on the surface of zinc metal is an economical and practical strategy to promote reversibility and durability. However, the artificial interfacial layers are normally constructed through ex situ methods, such as knife coating, [ 6 ] evaporation coating, [ 7 ] sputter coating, [ 8 ] spin coating, [ 9 ] and chemical vapor deposition, [ 10 ] which always suffer from the issues of uneven coating, increased electrode thickness, weak adhesion, and easy failure. These issues may result in irregular deposition behavior of Zn 2+ , low energy density, and short cycle life of batteries.…”
