Electric-field-reinforced affinitive electrolytes for highly reversible aqueous zinc metal batteries

We propose an affinitive additive strategy featuring high donor number and dipole moment, exemplified by N,N-dimethylurea (DMU), to dynamically modulate Zn2+ solvation and the structure of the electric double layer under operational electric fields. And this repository contains all computational data underlying the study, including: DFT-optimized molecular structures; initial and equilibrated configurations from MD simulations of bulk electrolyte and Zn/electrolyte interfaces; RDF and MSD analysis files; high-throughput xTB results (AIE, AEA, ion-binding energies); and machine learning scripts for descriptor screening. Data are organized by module with detailed READMEs to ensure full reproducibility.
