Room‐Temperature Synthetic Pathways to Barium Titanate Nanocrystals

Abstract Novel room‐temperature pathways to BaTiO₃nanocrystals have been recently developed, which stand in contrast to traditional high‐temperature methods. Peptide‐assisted, bio‐facilitated routes have been developed for low‐temperature nanocrystal growth, in addition to two low‐temperature routes completely independent of biomolecules. These innovative methods lay the groundwork for the facile production of nanoscale BaTiO₃in economical and energy‐efficient ways.
