Lattice Defects in Nanocrystalline CeO2 Thin Films

Abstract

The results of Raman scattering studies of nanocrystalline CeO2 thin films are presented. The spectra have been described using the spatial correlation model from which the coherence length has been determined as a function of grain size. A direct comparison between the concentration of defects related to coherence length and microstructure of CeO2 has been achieved.
