This book was released on 2008 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cerium oxide (ceria)-based materials in the nanoscale regime are of significant fundamental and technological interest. Nanoceria in pure and doped forms has current and potential use in solid oxide fuel cells, catalysis, UV- screening, chemical mechanical planarization, oxygen sensors, and bio-medical applications. The characteristic feature of Ce to switch between the +3 and +4 oxidation states renders oxygen buffering capability to ceria. The ease of this transformation was expected to be enhanced in the nanoceria. In most the practical scenarios, it is necessary to have a stable suspension of ceria nanoparticles (CNPs) over longer periods of time. However, the existing literature is confined to short term studies pertaining to synthesis and property evaluation. Having understood the need for a comprehensive understanding of the CNP suspensions, this dissertation is primarily aimed at understanding the behavior of CNPs in various chemical and physical environments. We have synthesized CNPs in the absence of any surfactants at room temperature and studied the aging characteristics. After gaining some understanding about the behavior of this functional oxide, the synthesis environment and aging temperature were varied, and their affects were carefully analyzed using various materials analysis techniques such as high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). When the CNPs were aged at room temperature in as-synthesized condition, they were observed to spontaneously assemble and evolve as fractal superoctahedral structures. The reasons for this unique polycrystalline morphology were attributed to the symmetry driven assembly of the individual truncated octahedral and octahedral seed of the ceria. HRTEM and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analyses were used to explain the agglomeration behavior and evolution of the octahedral morphology. Some of the observations were supported by molecular dynamic simulations. Poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) and ethylene glycol (EG) were used to control the kinetics of this morphology evolution. The ability to control the agglomeration of CNPs in these media stems from the lower dielectric constant and an increased viscosity of the EG and PEG based solvents. CNPs when synthesized and aged in frozen conditions, i.e. in ice, were found to form one dimensional, high aspect ratio structures. A careful analysis has provided some evidence that the CNPs use the porous channels in ice as a template and undergo oriented attachment to form nanorods. When the aging treatment was done near freezing temperature in solution, the nanorods were not observed, confirming the role of channels in ice. When synthesized in aqueous media such as DI water, PEG and EG; CNPs were observed to exhibit a reversible oxidation state switching between +3 and +4. Band gap values were computed from the optical absorption data. The changes in the band gap values observed were attributed to the changes in the oxidation state of CNPs as opposed to the quantum confinement effects, as expected in other nanoparticle systems. The work presented in this dissertation demonstrates, with evidence, that in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the properties of nanoscale materials it is of paramount importance to monitor their behavior over relatively longer periods of time under various ambient environments. While the solution based techniques offer a versatility and low cost route to study the fundamental properties of nanomaterials, they suffer some inherent problems such as precursor contamination and uncontrolled chemical reactions. Especially when analyzing the behavior of ceria-based materials for applications like solid oxide fuel cells, a great control in the density and crystalline quality are desired. In order to achieve this, as a first step pure ceria thin films were synthesized using oxygen plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy (OPA-MBE). The ceria films were analyzed using various in situ and ex situ techniques to study the crystal structure, growth mode and epitaxial quality of the films. It was observed that the epitaxial orientation of the ceria films could be tuned by varying the deposition rate. When the films were grown at low deposition rate ([less than]8 [angstrom]/min) ceria films with epitaxial (200) orientation were observed where as the films grown at high deposition rates (up to 30 [angstrom]/min) showed (111) orientation. Theoretical simulations were used to confirm some of the experimental facts observed in both nanoparticles and thin films.

This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A challenging task, in the area of magnetic resonance imaging is to develop contrast enhancers with built-in antioxidant properties. Oxidative stress is considered to be involved in the onset and progression of several serious conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and the possibility to use cerium-contained nanoparticles to modulate such inflammatory response has gained a lot of interest lately. The rare earth element gadolinium is, due to its seven unpaired f-electrons and high symmetry of the electronic state, a powerful element for contrast enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging. Chelates based on gadolinium are the most commonly used contrast agents worldwide. When introducing external contrast agents there is always a risk that it may trigger inflammatory responses, why there is an urgent need for new, tailor-made contrast agents. Small sized cerium oxide nanoparticles have electronic structures that allows coexistence of oxidation states 3+ and 4+ of cerium, which correlates to applicable redox reactions in biomedicine. Such cerium oxide nanoparticles have recently shown to exhibit antioxidant properties both in vitro and in vivo, via the mechanisms involving enzyme mimicking activity. This PhD project is a comprehensive investigation of cerium oxide nanoparticles as scaffold materials for gadolinium integration. Gadolinium is well adopted into the crystal structure of cerium oxide, enabling the combination of diagnostic and therapeutic properties into a single nanoparticle. The main focus of this thesis project is to design cerium oxide nanoparticles with gadolinium integration. A stepwise approach was employed as follows: 1) synthesis with controlled integration of gadolinium, 2) material characterization by means of composition crystal structure, size, and size distribution and 3) surface modification for stabilization. The obtained nanoparticles exhibit remarkable antioxidant capability in vitro and in vivo. They deliver strongly enhanced contrast per gadolinium in magnetic resonance imaging, compared to commercially available contrast agents. A soft shell of dextran is introduced to encapsulate the cerium oxide nanoparticles with integrated gadolinium, which protects and stabilizes the hard core and to increases their biocompatibility. The dextran-coating is clearly shown to reduce formation of a protein corona and it improves the dispersibility of the nanoparticles in cell media. Functionalization strategies are currently being studied to endow these nanoparticles with specific tags for targeting purposes. This will enable guidance of the nanoparticles to a specific tissue, for high local magnetic resonance contrast complemented with properties for on-site reduced inflammation. In conclusion, our cerium oxide nanoparticles with integrated gadolinium, exhibit combined therapeutic and diagnostic, i.e. theragnostic capabilities. This type of nanomaterial is highly promising for applications in the field of biomedical imaging.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanomaterials based on cerium (IV) oxide, or CeO2, have been investigated due to interesting chemistry from the readily accessible Ce3+/Ce4+ transition. This transition is accompanied by a gain or loss in CeO2 oxygen and/or electrons. As a result, CeO2 has demonstrated reversible antioxidant activity and enzyme mimetic activity, and has also been used in oxygen transport, photocatalysis, and small molecule oxidation applications. Doping CeO2 with lower valent ions creates oxygen vacancies and increases the Ce3+/Ce4+ ratio within the lattice. The dopant may also contribute properties such as fluorescence or magnetism to compliment the CeO2 chemistry. This work presents the synthesis of several europium doped-CeO2 (Eu-CeO2) morphologies, the investigation into parameters controlling their size, morphology, and elemental composition. Select applications highlighting differences in the materials synthesized were also investigated. Eu-CeO2 nanorods and nanocubes were synthesized using a hydrothermal procedure. The nanorods were also annealed to enhance their Eu3+ fluorescence. An electrospinning and annealing procedure was used to synthesize nanowires. The Eu:Ce ratio for all the rods, cubes, and wires were controlled by changing the Eu3+ precursor concentration. Manipulation of the precursor concentrations provided minor dimension control of the rods, while changing of Ce3+ precursor and hydrothermal reaction time influenced the nanocube morphology. Finally, Eu-CeO2 nanotubes have been synthesized by layered deposition of Ce(OH)3 on a sacrificial ZnO nanowire array. The hydroxide was oxidized to Eu-CeO2 and the ZnO core etched to produce the nanotube morphology. The nanotube dimensions were controlled by the ZnO core, but low yield demands further optimization prior to use in the intended drug delivery applications. One synthesized, the rods, cubes, and wires were analyzed for Eu3+-contributed fluorescence. While the cubes and wires fluoresced as synthesized, the nanorods required annealing above 500 Â°C to fluoresce. Nanocubes were also synthesized with neodymium and ytterbium instead of europium. These cubes fluoresce at 800-1000nm, which is useful in bioimaging applications. The four materials (rods, annealed rods, cubes, and wires) were also compared for their effect on the transformation of di-hydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa) to eumelanin. Previous CeO2 nanoparticles have captured catechol-containing molecules by oxidation and conjugation with the -OH groups. Our Eu-CeO2 materials suppressed eumelanin-associated fluorescence by up to 60% when added to L-Dopa early in its transformation to eumelanin. The four morphologies exhibited very different activities, with higher Ce3+ concentrations and smaller crystalline domains associated with enhanced suppression of eumelanin synthesis.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global need for clean renewable fuels has led to a high degree of interest in using photocatalytic processes that can form useful fuels. Semiconducting metal oxide materials have been extensively studied in this field due to their ability to generate highly reactive charge carriers upon photoexcitation, nontoxicity, and inexpensive fabrication. CeO2 has recently garnered interest as a photocatalytic material due to its redox mutability and relative abundance. In order to understand and improve the behavior of CeO2 as a photocatalyst, a thorough investigation into the dynamics of photoexcited charge carriers is needed. Herein, transient absorption spectroscopy was used to study the lifetime of photogenerated electrons and holes within CeO2 nanoparticles with varying diameters and crystalline domain sizes. Through tuning the size, the surface-to-bulk ratio is altered, allowing for a finer study of the surface and bulk hole dynamics in the nanoparticles. Through hole scavenging experiments, spectral assignments of surface and bulk holes were made and the behavior of these carriers vs electron small polarons (self-trapped electrons) was compared. The faster decay dynamics of ESPs in comparison with hole dynamics, both bulk and surface, reveals that the latter charge carrier is able to migrate away from its geminate partner and likely trap elsewhere within the particle. This observation suggests CeO2 nanoparticles should be considered photocatalysts for oxidation half reactions in which holes are employed. The surface holes were found to decay slower than the bulk holes, indicating that the latter trap/recombine more quickly. This long-lived decay for surface holes shows promise for the use of CeO2 as a photocatalytic oxidant. Signals from both holes and electrons small polarons decay slower in larger nanoparticles comprised of larger crystalline domains. This observation suggests the larger distance the electron small polaron must migrate or “hop” to within CeO2 aids in charge separation, allowing carriers within the larger nanoparticles to live longer. The disparate lifetimes for holes and electron small polarons in large and small nanoparticles suggest larger nanoparticles with larger crystalline domains are more useful as a photocatalyst despite the lower surface area in comparison to smaller nanoparticles. To further probe the surface states in CeO2, dye-sensitization experiments were carried out using coumarin 343, a visible light absorbing dye. By probing the transient absorption decay dynamics probed in the mid-IR and visible/near IR, electron injection and back-electron transfer dynamics of carriers introduced to CeO2 surface states were probed. Excitation of coumarin 343 bound to the surface of CeO2 using 430 nm light results in the formation of an oxidized dye signal in ≤300 fs, indicating CeO2 nanoparticles can support rapid electron injection. Additionally, excitation of C-343 bound CeO2 results in the formation of a measurable mid-infrared transient absorption signal not observed upon photoexcitation of bare CeO2 with UV light. The signal is assigned to an electron injected into a distribution of trap states made from Ce 5d orbitals, revealing the dissimilar nature of carriers promoted to the Ce 5d and Ce 4f states. To the best of our knowledge, the transient dynamics of electrons occupying the Ce 5d states have not previously been probed due to the high photonic energy needed to access these states. This result demonstrates a strategy for accessing Ce 5d states, which would not be easily attainable through excitation of bare CeO2 nanoparticles, as well as a method for injecting charge carriers into CeO2 using visible light. The decay of the mid-IR signal does not match the decay of the oxidized dye signal, indicating the injected electron first relaxes to a deeper set of trap states or to the Ce 4f states prior to back-electron transfer to oxidized coumarin 343. Pump wavelength dependent transient absorption and mid-IR transient experiments indicate that the back-electron transfer is limited by trapping distances of injected electrons from the surface bound oxidized dye.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have studied (001) surface terminated cerium oxide nanoparticles grown on a ruthenium substrate using physical vapor deposition. Their morphology, shape, crystal structure, and chemical state are determined by low-energy electron microscopy and micro-diffraction, scanning probe microscopy, and synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Square islands are identified as CeO2 nanocrystals exhibiting a (001) oriented top facet of varying size; they have a height of about 7 to 10 nm and a side length between about 50 and 500 nm, and are terminated with a p(2 × 2) surface reconstruction. Micro-illumination electron diffraction reveals the existence of a coincidence lattice at the interface to the ruthenium substrate. The orientation of the side facets of the rod-like particles is identified as (111); the square particles are most likely of cuboidal shape, exhibiting (100) oriented side facets. Lastly, the square and needle-like islands are predominantly found at step bunches and may be grown exclusively at temperatures exceeding 1000 °C.
