Sol-gel fabrication of porous ceria microspheres for thermochemical carbon dioxide (CO2) splitting
Porous CeO2 has been of great interest recently, due to its great catalytic efficiency in splitting CO2 into CO and O2. Porous CeO2 microspheres are the key to scaling up such reactions in the fluidized-bed solar thermochemical reactors.

Phase shift spectra of a fiber-microsphere system at the single photon level [PDF]
We succeeded in measuring phase shift spectra of a microsphere cavity coupled with a tapered fiber using a weak coherent probe light at the single photon level. We utilized a tapered fiber with almost no depolarization and constructed a very stable phase
