Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are emerging as promising next-generation energy storage systems due to their inherent safety, environmental sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. However, widespread application is hindered by challenges such dendritic Zn growth, hydrogen evolution, corrosion-induced passivation, which compromise performance scalability. To overcome these obstacles, we developed a novel dual-interface modified zinc anode integrating fluoride (ZnF2)-silicon (Si) interface using fluorine-doped silicon nanoparticles encapsulated within hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres (F-Si@HMCS). The in situ formation of ZnF2 layer provides high electrochemical stability, effectively suppressing dendrite formation, mitigating corrosion, reducing side reactions with the electrolyte. silica further facilitates uniform electrodeposition forming Si-O-Zn bonds, regulate electric field distribution lower nucleation barriers. Additionally, structure efficient ion transport acts buffer against volume changes during cycling. Consequently, F-Si@HMCS@Zn electrode exhibits long lifespan over 2500 h at 5 mA cm-2 capacity 0.5 symmetrical cell test. When coupled α-MnO2 cathodes, resulting ZIBs exhibit outstanding stable cycle life 2000 cycles 2 A g-1.
