An electrolyte cation additive strategy provides a versatile route for developing high-energy and long-life aqueous zinc-ion hybrid capacitors. However, the mechanisms of energy storage and Zn anode protection are still unclear in Zn-based systems with dual-ion electrolytes. Here, a dual charge stor...
