In article number 1701913 , Ferdi Karadas, Ömer Dag, and co‐workers synthesize transparent mesoporous thin films of LiCoO 2 and LiMn 2 O 4 by employing a molten salt assisted self‐assembly method. A clear solution of the ingredients is coated over a subtrate that is heated at elevated temperatures to obtain the transparent mesoporous metal lithiates. The mesoporous LiCoO 2 film electrode, coated over a FTO substrate, demonstrates promising water oxidation electrocatalysis at low overpotentials.
