The development of MnO2 as a cathode for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) is severely limited by the low intrinsic electrical conductivity and unstable crystal structure. Herein, a multifunctional modification strategy is proposed to construct N-doped KMn8 O16 with abundant oxygen vacancy and larg...
