摘要
Solar energy is considered the most promising renewable energy source.Solar cells can harvest and convert solar energy into electrical energy,which needs to be stored as chemical energy,thereby realizing a balanced supply and demand for energy.As energy storage devices for this purpose,newly developed photo-enhanced rechargeable metal batteries,through the internal integration of photovoltaic technology and high-energy-density metal batteries in a single device,can simplify device configuration,lower costs,and reduce external energy loss.This review focuses on recent progress regarding the working principles,device architectures,and performances of various closed-type and open-type photo-enhanced rechargeable devices based on metal batteries,including Li/Zn-ion,Li-S,and Li/Zn-I_(2),and Li/Zn-O_(2)/air,Li-CO_(2),and Na-O_(2) batteries.In addition to provide a fundamental understanding of photo-enhanced rechargeable devices,key challenges and possible strategies are also discussed.Finally,some perspectives are provided for further enhancing the overall performance of the proposed devices.
