Abstract

$CeO_2$ nanoparticles were prepared by a flame spray pyrolysis from aqueous solution of cerium nitrate. The morphology, structure crystallinity and specific surface area of as-prepared nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Brunauer-Emmett-Telle (BET). The $CeO_2$ nanoparticles about 5 nm in diameter showed a cubic fluorite structure and polyhedral morphology. The average particle size increased as the cerium nitrate concentration increased. UV absorption performance of the as-prepared nanoparticles was measured by UV-visible spectroscopy. UV absorption of $CeO_2$ nanoparticles was more effective than that of commercial $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. Effect of dopants such as Ti and Zn to $CeO_2$ nanoparticles on UV absorption properties was also investigated. In case of $Ti/CeO_2$, and $Zn/CeO_2$ nanoparticles, they showed a little higher UV absorption values compared with $CeO_2$ nanoparticles. The as-prepared nanoparticles can be promising materials with high UV absorption value.
