    "abstract": "Numerous modification strategies have been proposed to enhance the performance of the Zn anode and carbon cathode in aqueous zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs). However, one efficient strategy to modify both the anode and cathode is still lacking. Herein, taurine (Tau), the key ingredient of energy drinks, is used as the electrolyte additive and carbon precursor for ZIHCs simultaneously. As the electrolyte additive, Tau achieves the preferential growth of Zn (002) plane by preferentially adsorbing on other crystal planes. Moreover, Tau accelerates Zn",
