(A) X-ray diffraction profiles of undoped Fe2O3 and Ce-doped Fe2O3 nanoparticles synthesized by auto combustion method using oxalic acid (a). Slight shifting of Fe2O3 (104) peak, to lower 2θ angles, is due to Ce-atoms doping (b). (B) SEM images of pure Fe2O3 (a) and 1% Ce-doped Fe2O3 NPs (b). Particle size distributions of pure Fe2O3 (a1) and 1% Ce-doped Fe2O3 NPs (b1).
