Formation of Co–O bonds and reversal of thermal annealing effects induced by X-ray irradiation in (Y, Co)-codoped CeO2 nanocrystals
Abstract We report an unconventional effect of synchrotron X-ray irradiation in which Co–O bonds in thermally annealed (Y, Co)-codoped CeO2 nanocrystal samples were formed due to, instead of broken by, X-ray irradiation. Our experimental data indicate that escaping oxygen atoms from X-ray-broken Ce–...
