Fu Z. D. Wei M. B. Ji L. Li P. K. Shen J. Zhang Received 13 August 2008 Accepted 11 September 2008 Published online 30 September 2008 to the authors 2008 Abstract Nanoscale cerium dioxides with shape of nanoparticles nanorods and nanotubes were electrochemically synthesized. The morphology of CeO2 was modulated by changing electrode potential and potential direction. CeO2 nanorods and CeO2 nanotubes were synthesized via the potentiostatic and cyclic voltammeteric methods respectively. The morphology and structure of the obtained CeO2 were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope FESEM and X-ray diffraction XRD . A possible formation mechanism has been suggested to illuminate the relationship between the preparation condition and the morphology of CeO2. Keywords CeO2 Nanorod Nanotube Electrosynthesis Y. Fu Z.
