Effect of temperature on the crystallite size of Lanthanum Cerium Oxide (La2Ce2O7) and its optical properties
Journal Title: Carbon - Science and Technology - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The effect of the calcination process on the crystallite size and optical properties of Lanthanum Cerium Oxide (La2Ce2O7) nanopowders synthesized using co-precipitation process were reported. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the synthesized nanopowders calcined at various temperatures have cubic fluorite phase. Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Laser Raman Spectroscopy, and UVvisible spectroscopy were utilized to characterize phase structure and morphology of the products.
