Cerium dioxide (CeO₂) hollow microspheres have been prepared via bio-template and precipitation method using yeast as template. The products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectra, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms. The results showed that the CeO₂ hollow microspheres were obtained after calcination at 600 ℃, and their shapes were approximately ellipsoid same as the yeasts. The shell of the as-prepared hollow microspheres is composed of CeO₂ nanoparticles with size of ~25 nm. The specific surface area of the sample is 22 m²·g^-1 which is higher than the sample prepared without templates. The band gap energy of the CeO₂ hollow microsphere (3.03 eV) is small compared with the samples prepared without templates (3.42 eV) via UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum. The as-prepared CeO₂ hollow microspheres exhibit good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of acid orange 7 (AO 7) at room temperature under solar light irradiation. The degradation rate of AO 7 can be 96% after 120 min which is much higher than that of samples prepared without templates. The formation mechanism of CeO₂ hollow microspheres has been proposed.
