Description
In this work we shed the light on the mechanism of mesocrystals formation. We use the process of gamma-radiation induced synthesis of CeO2 mesocrystals as a model reaction, and perform time dependent studies using combination of different techniques including energy-filtered electron radial distribution function analysis and in-situ TEM. We follow the reaction from the very early stages showing the role of intermediate amorphous phases at each stage. The work is published in Angewandte Chemie.
