Hexagonal single-crystalline cerium carbonate hydroxide (CeCO₃OH) precursors with dendrite morphologies have been synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method at 180 ℃ using CeCl₃·7H₂O as the cerium source, triethylenetetramine as both an alkaline and carbon source, with triethylenetetramine also playing an important role in the formation of the dendrite structure. Polycrystalline ceria (CeO₂) have been obtained by calcining the precursor at 500 ℃ for 4 h. The morphology of the precursor was partly maintained during the heating process. The optical absorption spectra indicate the CeO₂ nano/microstructures have a direct band gap of 2.92 eV, which is lower than values of the bulk powder due to the quantum size effect. The high absorption in the UV region for CeO₂ nano/microstructure indicated that this material was expected to be used as UV-blocking materials.
