Abstract:
Nanocrystals of Ce1-xMnxO2-δ (x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20) were synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction route. The solid solutions crystallized in a cubic fluorite structure with a particle size in the range of 11∼15 nm. The incorporation of Mn ions in CeO2 resulted in a lattice volume reduction. Mn ions showed a mixed valence state of +2, +3 and +4 in CeO2 lattice. An obvious red-shift of the absorption threshold edge was observed from the UV-visible spectrum. Compared with the bulk CeO2, Ce1-xMnxO 2-δ nanocrystals exhibited a lower releasing oxygen temperature as indicated by TPR technique.
