TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize several methodologies of morphology engineering, consisting of additive engineering, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), solvent engineering, solvent annealing, thermal engineering, compositional engineering and humidity engineering.

TL;DR: A simple process for making high-purity solar-grade silicon films directly from silicon dioxide via a one-step electrodeposition process in molten salt, providing a promising strategy for low-cost silicon solar cells production.

TL;DR: Zou et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a direct electrochemical route from oxides to Ti-Si intermetallics, which is a direct route from graphite to graphite.

TL;DR: Zou et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a direct selective extraction of titanium suicide Ti5Si3 from multi-component Ti-bearing compounds in molten salt by an electrochemical process.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the mainstream molten salt synthesis strategies for the production of porous carbon materials, which includes direct molten salt carbonization process, capture and electrochemical conversion of CO2 to value-added carbon, electrochemical exfoliation of graphite to graphene-based materials, and Electrochemical etching of carbides to new-type carbide-derived carbon materials.
