We used density functional theory calculations, following the DFT+U approach, to study the structure, electronic properties, and reactivity of carbon dioxide adsorption, activation and reduction on stoichiometric and reduced ceria (110) surfaces. This works serves a baseline for future studies of carbon dioxide conversion on ceria catalysts.
