Title: Methods of forming a metal coated article

Abstract

A method of forming a metal coated article, comprises forming a metal halide in a molten salt plating bath at a first temperature, wherein forming the metal halide in the molten salt further comprises forming at least one functional metal halide electrolyte; and forming at least two auxiliary metal halide electrolytes at eutectic conditions; increasing the first temperature to a second temperature; forming a plated metal coating from the at least one functional metal halide electrolyte onto a thermally conductive substrate; and introducing at least one of deuterium and tritium into the plated metal coating.
