摘要：

Highly uniform and well-dispersed cerium oxide quantum dots were successfully synthesized by simple precipitation method by using cerium ammonium nitrate and ammonium hydroxide as precursor materials with suitable conditions. The X-ray diffraction pattern indicates the formation of cubic phase CeO(2). The average particle size of cerium oxide from high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) was found to be 3 nm. The X-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectrum confirms the presence of Ce(3+) in CeO(2). Optical studies by UV-vis spectroscopy for the synthesized CeO(2) nanoparticles exhibit a blue shift (E(g) = 3.78 eV) with respect to the bulk material (E(g) = 3.15 eV) due to quantum confined exciton absorption.
