Abstract
A novel conversion-type rechargeable battery is constructed, the battery using selenium as the cathode material. Preferably, the selenium is coated over the surface of the pores in a mesoporous ion collector such as carbon. A salt of zinc having an organic ion with polar function group is used with the battery, allowing the solvent of the battery to be either organic or aqueous.
