摘要: Temperature variations of the electron magnetic resonance (EMR) spectra and magnetization measurements are used to show that Ce3+ ions in concentration ≃18% present 3 nm CeO2 nanoparticles supported on silica aerogel. It is argued presence implies defect structure CeO2-x for ceria due oxygen vacancies. This transformation Ce4+ driven by vacancies may be key understanding catalytic properties ceria.
