and oxygen vacansies (up to black)
So,what are you saying?
Are you saying that the missing of oxygen atoms in the
cerium oxide lattice may cause the cerium oxide to change colors?

I must say that this is the first thread that you didn't help me at all.But i,still,don't angry ;)
After all,you were very helpful at my other threads.
But i think i should stop here.too much posts with no progress.
I don't believe that cerium oxide 99.9% can be also brown and also white.Something is smell bad here.

Thanks :)
