abstract: Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) hold significant promise for large-scale energy storage systems and wearable devices due to their high safety, acceptable energy density, and cost-effectiveness. However, AZIBs face formidable challenges, including Zn dendrites, side reactions, sluggish reaction kinetics, and shuttle effects, which lead to rapid capacity reduction and limited cycle life of Zn anodes, posing a significant barrier to their practical application. Modulating the crystal orientation on the surface of Zn anodes is an effective approach to prevent dendrite growth. Regulating the oriented deposition of Zn atoms along Zn(002) crystal planes can achieve a dendrite-free Zn anode. In addition, side reactions are reduced by the directional deposition of (002) plane. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the challenges facing Zn anodes and explores the feasibility of achieving high-performance Zn anodes through the regulation of Zn directional deposition. Comprehensive crystallographic regulation strategies are systematically summarized, including preparation strategies and designs of Zn(002) crystal plane induction. Finally, the mechanisms underlying directional deposition are thoroughly reviewed. The current limitations of Zn(002) plane-oriented deposition and future development opportunities are discussed to advance the commercial viability of AZIBs.
