CeO2, one of most attractive rare earth oxides, that displays outstanding properties such as excellent catalytic activity, marked chemical/thermal stability and the ability for the formation/diffusion of oxygen vacancies, is widely used as the support for noble metal catalysts to improve the conversion efficiencies of catalytic reaction. In the past several decades, noble metal/ceria-based composites have been extensively employed in CO oxidation, water gas shift reaction, NOx reduction and solid oxide fuel cell, suggesting their important roles in green energy and environmental remediation. Normally, the complicated interaction between CeO2 and noble metals has great impact not only on the conversion rates of catalytic reactions, but also on the stability, activity and selectivity of the catalysts. This review focuses on the structures of the noble metal/ceria-based composition, including the conventional structure and novel structure. Based on novel structure, such as core-shell, yolk-shell, core-sheath, lamellar structure, the interaction between noble and ceria nanomaterials and the influence of the catalytic ability on this kind of interaction were all summarized. What's more, the different structure features and synthetic methods of the catalyst, the application of the catalytic characteristic and the influence of the catalytic ability on composite structure were also systematic discussed. The researches in noble metal/ceria-based compositions hold great promise in the synthesis of different structured catalysts with abilities to manipulate catalytic reactions in more economic and efficient ways.
