Abstract
Ceria nanocubes with their exposed (100) facets are highly active for oxidation reactions, especially for CO oxidation reaction. We present a facile synthetic route to CeO2 nanocubes via simple hydrothermal treatment in the presence of ammonia, which is a first move in this direction. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, FTIR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and Diffuse Reflectance UV spectroscopy have been used for the characterisation of the material. Well defined nanocubes of size 16–20nm having high surface area are obtained by this method.
