Abstract
Single crystals of TiO2 rutile doped with Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu were grown with the flux method in a Na2B4O7 melt. The samples, checked in their structural and phase homogeneity by x-ray diffraction and micro-Raman spectroscopy, were single-phase needle-shaped crystals several millimetres long. Paramagnetic and ferromagnetic behaviours at room temperature were observed and they are discussed also in connection with the magnetic properties of undoped TiO2 crystalsFile in questo prodotto:
