Анотація


Титанокремнезeмні нанокомпозити, доповані CuO або NiO, вивчені методами ультрафіолетової (у режимі дифузного відбиття) та рентгенівської фотоелектронної спектроскопії. Фотокаталітична активність зразків була досліджена в процесі фотоокиснення кофеїну. Значення ширини забороненої зони розраховувались методом Тауца для непрямих дозволених оптичних переходів за винятком зразка при CNiO = 30 мас. %, проаналізованого з урахуванням прямого оптичного дозволеного переходу. Підвищення вмісту оксиду купруму(ІІ) призводить до практично експоненціального зменшення ширини забороненої зони. Ширина забороненої зони композитів, допованих NiO, демонструє майже лінійне сниження зі зростанням CNiO. Згідно з даними РФЕС, допанти повністю відсутні в поверхневому шарі матеріалів. Всі композити виявились більш активними фотокаталізаторами, ніж зразок P25 (Evonik).
