Abstract
X-ray absorption and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering measurements were performed on a single crystal of CeO2 near the Ce LIII edge at room temperature and at 873 K. At 873 K the inelastic spectrum exhibits reversible changes, which are paralleled by reversible changes in the X-ray absorption spectrum. These changes are not due to chemical reduction of the sample, and may be indicative of evolution of the structure of oxygen sublattice in CeO2 at elevated temperatures.
