"cathode material with a heterojunction bandgap structure was synthesized, with a n-type semiconductor (graphitic carbon nitride, g-C3N4) and ap-type semiconductor (copper-doppedZIF-67 (Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67),CuZIF-67). Long-term galvanostatic charge-discharge profile with zoomed dark, dark-light shifting, and light regions of the CZ-based zincair battery at a current density of 2 mA cm− 2 for up to 1000 cycles"
