Abstract

The surface morphology of the zinc-metal electrode was modulated using different levels of physical polishing treatment. Modulating the surface scratches homogenized the deposition electric field and reduced the local current density. A reasonable surface treatment could limit the “tip effect” and bring homogeneous plating and stripping of the Zn electrode.
