Improved photocatalytic decomposition of aqueous Rhodamine-B by solar light illuminated hierarchical yttria nanosphere decorated ceria nanorods

We report the new synthesis route of hierarchical yttria (Y2O3) nanosphere decorated ceria (CeO2) nanorods from the precursor cerium nitrate and yttrium nitrate under hydrothermal method (HM). Synthesized nanorods (NRs) were analyzed by different techniques to investigate their textural morphology,...
