Abstract
TiO2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are twelve inequivalent Ti4+ sites. In the first Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one TiO4 tetrahedra and edges with five TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.20 Å. In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.10 Å. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.83–2.23 Å. In the fourth Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one TiO4 tetrahedra and edges with five TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.22 Å. In the fifth Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.09 Å.
