Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX)<br />
The elemental analysis <strong>of</strong> the synthesized<br />
compound was performed using energy dispersive xray<br />
analysis technique . Fig.4. represents the EDAX<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>ile <strong>of</strong> Ce, Ni <strong>and</strong> O <strong>of</strong> the synthesized CeNiO3<br />
compound. The results on the EDAX analysis are<br />
presented in Table.2. The spectrum exhibits the<br />
constituent elements are in appropriate wt%.<br />
