Metal oxides based on cerium structures have become the focus on new functional materials due to their good electrical, optical and other properties. In the present study, a simple method based on green chemistry has used for the synthesis of cerium nanostructures. For achieving the purpose, barberry extract has applied for the synthesis of the nanostructures. Then, various techniques were used to characterize the synthesized nanostructures. Therefore, at first Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used for initial characterization. Then, the structural characterization was accomplished by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) technique. Also, morphologic studies was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In following the effect of barberry extract on the nanostructures properties was accomplished using electrochemical experiments. The data showed the presence of extracts in the synthesis route can be create an enhanced properties in the synthesized nanostructures.
