Resulting powders were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), N 2 -physisorption, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The TiO 2 and CeO 2 -doped TiO 2 nanopowders were composed of single-crystalline spherical particles with as-prepared primary particle size of 10-13 nm for Ce doping concentrations of 5-50 at%, while square-shape particles with average size around 9 nm were only observed from flame-made CeO 2 . The adsorption edge of resulting powder was shifted from 388 to 467 nm as the Ce content increased from 0 to 30 at% and there was an optimal Ce content in association with the maximum absorbance. This effect is due to the insertion of Ce 3+/4+ in the TiO 2 matrix, which generated an n-type impurity band. #
