Among them,aqueous rechargeable alkali-metal ion(Li^+Na^+, K^+) batteries, aqueous rechargeable-metal ion(Zn^(2+),Mg^(2+), Ca^(2+), Al^(3+)) batteries and aqueous rechargeable hybrid batteries are standing out due to peculiar properties. In this review, we focus on the fundamental basics of these batteries, and discuss the scientific and/or technological achievements and challenges. By critically reviewing state-of-the-art technologies and the most promising results so far, we aim to analyze the benefits of ARBs and the critical issues to be addressed, and to promote better development of ARBs.展开更多
