Abstract:
The possibilities for changing the absorption spectra of the anatase modification of the photocatalytic TiO$_2$ nanopowder were studied with the aim enhancing the efficiency of the photocatalytic reaction and to use more efficiently the energy of solar radiation for photocatalysis. It was found that the deposition of Ni-B clusters on the TiO2 powder by the unique nanotechnology developed by the authors increases significantly the absorption of solar energy.
