Abstract

Abstract: A comparative analysis was performed of the diffuse reflectance spectra and their changes after irradiation with 100 keV protons of TiO2/SiO2 bilayer hollow particles. The intensity of radiation-induced absorption bands in hollow TiO2/SiO2 particles is lower than that in TiO2 microparticles. The enhanced radiation resistance effect of TiO2/SiO2 bilayer hollow particles may be attributed to the high specific surface area of the particles, which serves as a sink for radiation defects, as well as to the presence of a protective amorphous SiO2 layer on the surface of TiO2 microspheres, which leads to a lower concentration of absorption centers in TiO2 responsible for absorption in the visible spectral range.
