Vol. 9, 2009 Leandro Gonza´lez-Rovira, Jose´ M. Sa´nchez-Amaya, Miguel Lo´pez-Haro, Eloy del Rio, Ana B. Hungrı´a, Paul Midgley, Jose´ J. Calvino, Serafı´n Bernal, and F. Javier Botana* Single-Step Process To Prepare CeO2 Nanotubes with Improved Catalytic Activity. The authors would like to apologize for not having referenced the paper by P. Bocchetta, M. Santamaria, and F. Di Quarto in Electrochemical and Solid-State Letters, published some months before submitting our manuscript.1 This work describes an experimental procedure and the mechanism to obtain cerium oxyhydroxide nanotubes similar to that employed by us to synthesize CeO2 nanotubes. In our text we stated that we had adapted the procedure described in ref 23, by Di Quarto et al., to obtain La(OH)3 nanowires. As these authors had published the above commented paper previously to ours, the novelty of such adaptation must be attributed to them.
