It explores both stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric forms of CeO?, offering a detailed discussion of how oxygen vacancies, Ceł?/Ce?? ions, and defect complexes (such as Ceł??Vo?Ceł?) govern the luminescence and redox activity of nanoceria. Structured in four in-depth chapters, the book begins with methods of synthesis and doping of CeO??? nanocrystals and continues with an extensive analysis of their electronic structure and luminescent properties. Special attention is paid to the role of defect centers, impurity ions, and energy level distributions in determining the optical response of doped and undoped systems. The third chapter investigates the mechanisms underlying the antioxidant behavior of nanoceria, focusing on their ability to interact with ROS such as hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, hydroxyl radicals, and superoxide anions. Luminescence spectroscopy is presented as a powerful tool for probing these dynamic interactions and elucidating redox mechanisms at the nanoscale. Finally, the book examines how environmental factors?including UV irradiation and pH?can be used to modulate the defect structure and redox properties of CeO??? nanocrystals, with applications in sensing and biomedical contexts. Intended for researchers in nanomaterials, solid-state physics, and bio-nanotechnology, this book offers both a fundamental and application-oriented perspective on cerium oxide nanocrystals as a unique class of redox-active, self-regenerating materials with broad scientific and technological relevance. 410 0$aPhysics and Astronomy Series 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aSurfaces (Physics) 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aPhysics 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aNanophysics 606 $aSurface and Interface and Thin Film 606 $aStructure of Condensed Matter 606 $aCondensed Matter Physics 606 $aPhysics and Astronomy 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics). 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 14$aNanophysics. 615 24$aSurface and Interface and Thin Film. 615 24$aStructure of Condensed Matter. 615 24$aCondensed Matter Physics. 615 24$aPhysics and Astronomy. 676 $a530.41 676 $a620.115 700 $aSeminko$b Vladyslav$01894992 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911064900403321 996 $aCerium Oxide Nanocrystals (CeO???)$94547013 997 $aUNINA
