A systematic study on synthesis of CeO₂ nanoparticles by various routes

Abstract Cerium oxide (CeO 2 ), also known as, ceria, is a well-known n-type semiconductor material. It finds potential roles in various field applications such as catalysis, sensing and antibacterial. widely used photocatalyst for treatment of waste water pollutants, because the variable oxidation state cerium i.e. +3, +4. Many reports are available literature which deals with synthesis properties CeO . The highly dependent on conditions precursors, additives, calcination temperature type route. In this review article, by chemical routes discussed detail.
