Description
Haitao Li and co-authors present a 2026 journal article on a zinc battery cathode that breathes. Manganese oxide cathodes for water-based zinc batteries face a trade: fast proton entry wrecks the structure, while zinc entry is gentle but slow. Stirring indium into the oxide, the team built a lattice that flexes under local strain and opens quick paths.
Both ion kinds now enter together from the first moment of discharge, sharing the charge load and sparing the acid-driven damage. The cathode delivered high capacity and survived 25,000 cycles with little fade. The authors offer lattice breathing as a general design rule.
