Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries have attracted extensive interest because of low cost and high safety. However, the relationship between structure change of cathode and the zinc ion storage mechanism is still complex and challenging. Herein, open-structured ferric vanadate (Fe₂V₄O₁₃) has been developed as cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Intriguingly, two zinc ion storage mechanism can be observed simultaneously for the Fe₂V₄O₁₃ electrode, i.e., classical intercalation/deintercalation storage mechanism in the tunnel structure of Fe₂V₄O₁₃, and reversible phase transformation from ferric vanadate to zinc vanadate, which is verified by combined studies using various in-situ and ex-situ techniques. As a result, the Fe₂V₄O₁₃ cathode delivers a high discharge capacity of 380 mAh/g at 0.2 A/g, and stable cyclic performance up to 1000 cycles at 10 A/g in the operating window of 0.2–1.6 V with 2 mol/L Zn(CF₃SO₃)₂ aqueous solution. Moreover, the assembled Fe₂V₄O₁₃//Zn flexible quasi-solid-state battery also exhibits a relatively high mechanical strength and good cycling stability. The findings reveal a new perspective of zinc ion storage mechanism for Fe₂V₄O₁₃, which may also be applicable to other vanadate cathodes, providing a new direction for the investigation and design of zinc-ion batteries.
