“…The molten salt synthesis (MSS) method is one of the simplest, most versatile, and highly cost-effective methodology to prepare crystalline, chemically pure, single-phase oxides nanostructures. , Although the MSS method has been applied to build bulk materials for a long time, the preparation of uniform oxide nanostructures using this technique has only arisen within the current century. , Many research groups, including our laboratory, have applied this generalized methodology to the fabrication of various single-crystalline perovskite oxide nanostructures. Examples have been presented for preparing BaTiO 3 nanowires, , BaTiO 3 nanostrips, BaZrO 3 nanospheres, (K 0.5 Bi 0.5 )TiO 3 nanowires, (La, Bi)AlO 3 nanoplates, and more. Previous works suggested that the calcination temperature is an important andreadily controllable factor that influences the size, as well as the crystallinity of the as-prepared particles, because the viscosity in the molten growth medium decreases when the temperature increases, which has an effect on the initial nucleation and subsequent diffusion of the growth species.…”
