Abstract

Correction for ‘Growth mechanism of ceria nanorods by precipitation at room temperature and morphology-dependent photocatalytic performance’ by Zhao Liu et al., CrystEngComm, 2017, 19, 4766–4776.


In the introduction on page 4766, the oxygen vacancy formation energy was reported as {110} > {100} > {111}, while it was reported the reverse order as {111} > {100} > {110} in the last paragraph of discussion, right before the conclusions part, on page 4774. The right order for the oxygen vacancy formation energy should be {111} > {100} > {110} as it is reported on page 4774. Also, the references for this should be both 4 and 12 in the paper's reference list which are 1 and 2 in this correction reference list.

The authors sincerely apologize for this misleading report on such important concept.
