Versatile synthetic method : Monodisperse anatase microspheres with various complex morphologies have been synthesized by using a versatile fluorine‐free solvothermal process in the presence of ammonia. Unambiguous evidence related to surface seeding and a subsequent hollowing process revealed an Ostwald ripening evolution process.
