Abstract
Electric, magnetic, and optical properties of the rocksalt form of titanium monoxide (TiO0.80 to TiO1.25) have been studied. TiO is metallic, exhibiting weak paramagnetism. Properties of TiO-phase samples are determined primarily by the relative concentration of titanium and oxygen atoms and to a lesser extent by sample preparation. The resistivity of TiO1 can be represented as the sum of an extremely large residual resistivity and a temperature-dependent part having positive slope. Although off-stoichiometric samples exhibit resistivity vs temperature variation not typical of metals, the entire phase can be characterized as metallic. Specular reflectance data suggest that the yellow color of TiO-phase samples is due to a plasma edge relaxation in the yellow region of the visible spectrum.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
