Abstract
Different dimensions of carbon materials with various features have captured numerous interests due to their applications on the tremendous fields. Restricted by the raw materials and devices, the controlling of their morphology is a major challenge. Utilizing the catalytic features of the intermediates from the low-cost salts and polymerization of 0D carbon quantum dots (CQDs), 0D CQDs are expected to self-assemble into 1/2/3D carbon structures with the assistance of temperature-induced intermediates (e.g., ZnO, Ni, and Cu) from the salts (ZnCl2, NiCl2, and CuCl). The formation mechanisms are illustrated as follows: 1) the "orient induction" to evoke "vine style" growth mechanism of ZnO; 2) the "dissolution-precipitation" of Ni; and 3) the "surface adsorption self-limited" of Cu. Subsequently, the degree of graphitization, interlayer distance, and special surface area are investigated in detail. 1D structure from 700 °C as anode displays a high Na-storage capacity of 301.2 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 200 cycles and 107 mAh g-1 at 5.0 A g-1 after 5000 cycles. Quantitative kinetics analysis confirms the fundamentals of the enhanced rate capacity and the potential region of Na-insertion/extraction. This elaborate work opens up an avenue toward the design of carbon with multidimensions and in-depth understanding of their sodium-storage features.

Abstract
Carbonization of organic compounds with a highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level more positive than 1.3 V practically automatically results in highly sp2 -conjugated, heteroatom-doped carbons. Due to the stability of the starting compounds, carbon bond formation is restricted to result in morphologies with a surprisingly high local order which as such are noble, i.e., they are hard to oxidize and combust. The work function of electrons in these systems is so positive that the systems usually accept electrons, i.e., they oxidize other matter rather than being oxidized. Such noble, heteroatom-doped carbons have been proven to be efficient, metal-free electrocatalysts, but can be also beneficially used in the manufacturing of carbon nanomaterials for energy applications or as highly active, non-innocent catalytic supports.

Abstract
The design of inorganic nanoparticles relies strongly on the knowledge from solid-state chemistry not only for characterization techniques, but also and primarily for choosing the systems that will yield the desired properties. The range of inorganic solids reported and studied as nanoparticles is however strikingly narrow when compared to the solid-state chemistry portfolio of bulk materials. Efforts to enlarge the collection of inorganic particles are becoming increasingly important for three reasons. First, they can yield materials more performing than current ones for a range of fields including biomedicine, optics, catalysis, and energy. Second, looking outside the box of common compositions is a way to target original properties or to discover genuinely new behaviors. The third reason lies in the path followed to reach these novel nano-objects: exploration and setup of new synthetic approaches. Indeed, willingness to access original nanoparticles faces a synthetic challenge: how to reach nanoparticles of solids that originally belong to the realm of solid-state chemistry and its typical protocols at high temperature? To answer this question, alternative reaction pathways must be sought, which may in turn provide tracks for new, untargeted materials. The corresponding strategies require limiting particle growth by confinement at high temperatures or by decreasing the synthesis temperature. Both approaches, especially the latter, provide a nice playground to discover metastable solids never reported before. The aim of this Account is to raise attention to the topic of the design of new inorganic nanoparticles. To do so, we take the perspective of our own work in the field, by first describing synthetic challenges and how they are addressed by current protocols. We then use our achievements to highlight the possibilities offered by new nanomaterials and to introduce synthetic approaches that are not in the focus of recent literature but hold, in our opinion, great promise. We will span methods of low temperature "chimie douce" aqueous synthesis coupled to microwave heating, sol-gel chemistry and processing coupled to solid state reactions, and then molten salt synthesis. These protocols pave the way to metastable low valence oxyhydroxides, vanadates, perovskite oxides, boron carbon nitrides, and metal borides, all obtained at the nanoscale with structural and morphological features differing from "usual" nanomaterials. These nano-objects show original properties, from sensing, thermoelectricity, charge and spin transports, photoluminescence, and catalysis, which require advanced characterization of surface states. We then identify future trends of synthetic methodologies that will merit further attention in this burgeoning field, by emphasizing the importance of unveiling reaction mechanisms and coupling experiments with modeling.

Abstract
Generally, Ge-based anodes are prepared by metallothermic reduction of GeO2 with Mg at 650 °C. Herein, a molten-salt system is developed a low-temperature metallothermic reduction of GeO2 to prepare nanostructured Ge based anode materials. Typically, mesoporous hollow Ge microspheres are prepared by reduction of GeO2 with metallic Mg in molten ZnCl2 (mp 292) at 350 °C. Monodispersed Ge particles are synthesized through reduction of GeO2 with Mg in molten AlCl3 (mp 192 °C) at 250 °C. The meso-porous Ge anode delivers the reversible capacity of 1291 mA h g-1 at 0.2 C after 150 cycles with a retention of 97.3%, 1217 mA h g-1 at 0.8 C after 400 cycles with a retention of 91.9%, and superior rate capability with a capacity of 673 mA h g-1 even at 10 C. Then, the reaction mechanism and full-cell performance of as-prepared Ge anodes are studied systemically.

Abstract
It is critical for nanoporous carbons to have a large surface area, and low cost and be readily available for challenging energy and environmental issues. The pursuit of all three characteristics, particularly large surface area, is a formidable challenge because traditional methods to produce porous carbon materials with a high surface area are complicated and expensive, frequently resulting in pollution (commonly from the activation process). Here we report a facile method to synthesize nanoporous carbon materials with a high surface area of up to 1234 m2 g−1 and an average pore diameter of 0.88 nm through a simple carbonization procedure with carefully selected carbon precursors (biomass material) and carbonization conditions. It is the high surface area that leads to a high capacitance (up to 213 F g−1 at 0.1 A g−1) and a stable cycle performance (6.6% loss over 12 000 cycles) as shown in a three-electrode cell. Furthermore, the high capacitance (107 F g−1 at 0.1 A g−1) can be obtained in a supercapacitor device. This facile approach may open a door for the preparation of high surface area porous carbons for energy storage. High-surface-area nanoporous carbon is obtained by direct pyrolysis of biomass resources without an activation process. An electrochemical test shows high capacitance.![]()

Abstract
Silicon (Si) has aroused great interest as the most attractive anode candidate for energy-dense lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in the past decade because of its significantly high capacity and low discharge potential. However, the large volume change during cycling impedes its practical application, which is more serious in the case of high mass loading. Designing Si anode with high mass loading and high areal capacity by a simple, scalable, and environmentally friendly method is still a big challenge. Herein, we report in situ one-pot synthesis of Si/C composite, where Si nanoparticles are wrapped by graphene-like 2D carbon nanosheets. After 500 cycles at 420 mA g-1, the Si/C anode displays a gravimetric capacity of 881 mAh g-1 with 86.4% capacity being retained. More specially, a high areal capacity of 3.13 mAh cm-2 at 5.00 mg cm-2 after 100 cycles is achieved. This study demonstrates a novel route for the preparation of the Si/C composite with high material utilization and may expand the possibility of future design Si-based anode with high areal capacity for high energy LIBs.

Abstract
Graphene-based films are widely used in the electronics industry. Here, surface hydroxylated graphene sheets (HGS) have been synthesized from natural graphite (NG) by a rapid and efficient molten hydroxide-assisted exfoliation technique. This method enables preparation of aqueous dispersible graphene sheets with a high dispersed concentration (∼10.0 mg ml-1) and an extraordinary production yield (∼100%). The HGS dispersion was processed into graphene flexible film (HGCF) through fast filtration, annealing treatment and mechanical compression. The HGS endows graphene flexible film with a high electrical conductivity of 11.5 × 104 S m-1 and a superior thermal conductivity of 1842 W m-1 K-1. Simultaneously, the superflexible HGCF could endure 3000 repeated cycles of bending or folding. As a result, this graphene flexible film is expected to be integrated into electronic packaging and high-power electronics applications.

Abstract
Reactions of indium and silicon with lithium nitride in Ca/Li flux produce two new nitridosilicates: Ca8In2SiN4 (orthorhombic, Ibam; a = 12.904(1) Å, b = 9.688(1) Å, c = 10.899(1) Å, Z = 4) and Ca3SiN3H (monoclinic, C2/c; a = 5.236(1) Å, b = 10.461(3) Å, c = 16.389(4) Å, β = 91.182(4)°, Z = 8). Ca8In2SiN4 features isolated [SiN4]8- units and indium dimers surrounded by calcium atoms. Ca3SiN3H features infinite chains of corner-sharing SiN4 tetrahedra and distorted edge-sharing H@Ca6 octahedra. Optical properties and band structure calculations indicate that Ca8In2SiN4 is a void metal with calcium and indium states at the Fermi level and Ca3SiN3H is a semiconductor with a band gap of 3.1 eV.

Abstract
The common approach to the synthesis of a new material involves reactions held at high temperatures under certain conditions such as heating in a robust vessel in the dark for a period until it is judged to have concluded. Analysis of the vessel contents afterward provides knowledge of the final products only. Intermediates that may form during the reaction process remain unknown. This lack of awareness of transient intermediates represents lost opportunities for discovering materials or understanding how the final products form. Here we present new results using an emerging in situ monitoring approach that shows high potential in discovering new compounds. In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies were conducted in the Cs/Sn/P/Se system. Powder mixtures of Cs2Se2, Sn, and PSe2 were heated to 650 °C and then cooled to room temperature while acquiring consecutive in situ synchrotron diffraction patterns from the beginning to the end of the reaction process. The diffraction data was translated into the relationship of phases present versus temperature. Seven known crystalline phases were observed to form on warming in the experiment: Sn, Cs2Se3, Cs4Se16, Cs2Se5, Cs2Sn2Se6, Cs4P2Se9, and Cs2P2Se8. Six unknown phases were also detected; using the in situ synchrotron data as a guide three of them were isolated and characterized ex situ. These are Cs4Sn(P2Se6)2, α-Cs2SnP2Se6, and Cs4(Sn3Se8)[Sn(P2Se6)]2. Cs4(Sn3Se8)[Sn(P2Se6)]2 is a two-dimensional compound that behaves as an n-type doped semiconductor below 50 K and acts more like a semimetal at higher temperatures. Because all crystalline phases are revealed during the reaction, we call this approach "panoramic synthesis".

Abstract
Because of their exotic electronic properties and abundant active sites, two-dimensional (2D) materials have potential in various fields. Pursuing a general synthesis methodology of 2D materials and advancing it from the laboratory to industry is of great importance. This type of method should be low cost, rapid and highly efficient. Here, we report the high-yield synthesis of 2D metal oxides and hydroxides via a molten salts method. We obtained a high-yield of 2D ion-intercalated metal oxides and hydroxides, such as cation-intercalated manganese oxides (Na0.55Mn2O4·1.5H2O and K0.27MnO2·0.54H2O), cation-intercalated tungsten oxides (Li2WO4 and Na2W4O13), and anion-intercalated metal hydroxides (Zn5(OH)8(NO3)2·2H2O and Cu2(OH)3NO3), with a large lateral size and nanometre thickness in a short time. Using 2D Na2W4O13 as an electrode, a high performance electrochemical supercapacitor is achieved. We anticipate that our method will enable new path to the high-yield synthesis of 2D materials for applications in energy-related fields and beyond.

Abstract
Herein, porous photoactive nanocomposites are prepared by a simple one-pot synthesis approach using a salt and aqueous media. Within this reactive hypersaline route, the salt not only serves in the structuring of the composite but also becomes an integral active part of it. Here, the addition of sodium thiocyanate to a titania precursor guides, on the one hand, the formation of needle-shaped nanoparticles and, on the other hand, forms yellow compound isoperthiocyanic acid, which is homogeneously incorporated into the porous nanocomposite. Compared to a pure titania reference, this material reveals a 7-fold-increased photodegradation rate of Rhodamine B as a model compound. This reveals the reactive hypersaline route to be a promising and facile synthesis route toward photoactive porous materials.

Abstract
Early-late intermetallic phases have garnered increased attention recently for their catalytic properties. To achieve the high surface areas needed for industrially relevant applications, these phases must be synthesized as nanoparticles in a scalable fashion. Herein, Pt3Y-targeted as a prototypical example of an early-late intermetallic-has been synthesized as nanoparticles approximately 5-20 nm in diameter via a solution process and characterized by XRD, TEM, EDS, and XPS. The key development is the use of a molten borohydride (MEt3BH, M = Na, K) as both the reducing agent and reaction medium. Readily available halide precursors of the two metals are used. Accordingly, no organic ligands are necessary, as the resulting halide salt byproduct prevents sintering, which further permits dispersion of the nanoscale intermetallic onto a support. The versatility of this approach was validated by the synthesis of other intermetallic phases such as Pt3Sc, Pt3Lu, Pt2Na, and Au2Y.

Abstract
The hybridisation of Co3O4 and Fe2O3 nanoparticles dispersed in a super P carbon matrix is proposed as a favourable approach to improve the electrochemical performance (reversible capacity, cycling stability and rate capability) of the metal oxide electrodes in metal-ion batteries. Hybrid Co3O4-Fe2O3/C is prepared by a simple, cheap and easily scalable molten salt method combined with ball-milling and used in sodium-ion and potassium-ion batteries for the first time. The electrode exhibits excellent cycling stability and superior rate capability in sodium-ion cells with a capacity recovery of 440 mA h g-1 (93% retention) after 180 long-term cycles at 50-1000 mA g-1 and back to 50 mA g-1. In contrast, Co3O4-Fe2O3, Co3O4 and Fe2O3 electrodes display unsatisfactory electrochemical performance. The hybrid Co3O4-Fe2O3/C is also reactive with potassium and capable of delivering a reversible capacity of 220 mA h g-1 at 50 mA g-1 which is comparable with the most reported anode materials for potassium-ion batteries. The obtained results broaden the range of transition metal oxide-based hybrids as potential anodes for K-ion and Na-ion batteries, and suggest that further studies of these materials with potassium and sodium are worthwhile.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) graphene frameworks are usually limited by a complicated preparation process and a low specific surface area. This paper presents a facile suitable approach to effectively synthesize 3D graphene frameworks (GFs) with large specific surface area (up to 1018 m(2) g(-1)) through quick thermal decomposition from sodium chloroacetate, which are considerably larger than those of sodium acetate reported in our recent study. The chlorine element in sodium chloroacetate may possess a strong capability to induce in situ activation and regulate graphene formation during pyrolysis in one step. These GFs can be applied as excellent electrode materials for supercapacitors and can achieve an enhanced supercapacitor performance with a specific capacitance of 266 F g(-1) at a current density of 0.5 A g(-1).

Abstract
Mixtures of phenols/ketones and urea show eutectic behavior upon gentle heating. These mixtures possess liquid-crystalline-like phases that can be processed. The architecture of phenol/ketone acts as structure-donating motif, while urea serves as melting-point reduction agent. Condensation at elevated temperatures results in nitrogen-containing carbons with remarkably high nitrogen content of mainly pyrazinic nature.

Abstract
The porous single-crystal-like micro/nanomaterials exhibited splendid intrinsic performance in photocatalysts, dye-sensitized solar cells, gas sensors, lithium cells, and many other application fields. Here, a novel mesoporous single-crystal-like Bi2WO6 tetragonal architecture was first achieved in the mixed molten salt system. Its crystal construction mechanism originated from the oriented attachment of nanosheet units accompanied by Ostwald ripening process. Additionally, the synergistic effect of mixed alkali metal nitrates and electrostatic attraction caused by internal electric field in crystal played a pivotal role in oriented attachment process of nanosheet units. The obtained sample displayed superior photocatalytic activity of both organic dye degradation and O2 evolution from water under visible light. We gained an insight into this unique architecture's impact on the physical properties, light absorption, photoelectricity, and luminescent decay, etc., that significantly influenced photocatalytic activity.

Abstract
A topochemical molten salt synthesis (TMSS) method, which is rapid and a modification of the molten salt synthesis method (MSS), to facilitate crystal growth with improved phase-purity and particle homogeneity, is one of the strategic approaches aimed at a controllable morphology synthesis. The TMSS method is an environmentally friendly and mild way to prepare pure and controllable perovskites, which are famous functional materials, used as piezoelectrics, catalysts, ferroelectrics, multiferroics, and negative thermal expansion compounds, at a moderate reaction temperature in a short soaking time. This report reviews various TMSS reactions and their applications in fulfilling the demand for the tunable morphology of perovskite materials, such as one dimensional, two dimensional and three dimensional perovskites in molten salts, which mainly include: piezoelectrics, photocatalysts, negative thermal expansion matters and other functional perovskites. The double and layered perovskites obtained by TMSS methods are also discussed. We believe that a comprehensive understanding of the TMSS method for functional perovskites will definitely promote the development of a clean, efficient and tunable production process for advanced functional materials.

Abstract
To overcome the limitations of conventional techniques that employ high-temperature calcinations to prepare nanosized anatase titania (TiO2), and thus find effective methods for low-temperature methods to synthesise nanosized TiO2 with high catalytic activity, has been one of the most challenging aspects in the photocatalyst field. In this article, the recent progress in low-temperature synthesis of nanosized anatase TiO2 is reviewed. The advances in this field are discussed in the light of the progress in the development of suitable synthetic methods. Particular emphasis is placed on the special conditions and demands to prepare uniform and stable anatase nanostructures at low temperature. The principles, reactions, synthesising procedures as well as the advantages and disadvantages of reported methods are presented. Furthermore, to overcome the intrinsic shortcomings of pure nanosized TiO2 as photocatalyst, that is, the rather low quantum efficiency and the incapability of utilising visible light, this review is also extended to the technologies of preparing TiO2 composites such as ion-doping, rare metal deposit and composite semiconductors. Finally the developing trends and the potential focus of future research in this field are prospected.
