The paper reports the results of studying the electric characteristics of a thermophotovoltaic collector of solar energy whose photocells accepting surface was modified by plasma-electrolytic electrophoretic coating from silver nanoparticles, dispersed by a pulse-spark method. Improvement of functional properties (efficiency and power) of the modified converters working as components of integrated thermophotovoltaic set-up is established.
Keywords: thermophotovoltaic converters, nano-particles, modifying, power characteristics.
