About Ti8O13
Ti8O13 is a semiconducting titanium oxide that exists as a discrete phase within the complex titanium-oxygen binary system. Its electronic properties and structural configuration make it an intriguing subject for researchers investigating the transition between metallic and insulating oxide states.
Because it is identified as a near-hull material, Ti8O13 is considered thermodynamically accessible and likely synthesizable under controlled experimental conditions. Its presence in multiple structural databases highlights its significance in understanding the diverse stoichiometry of titanium oxides.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Ti8O13, aggregated across 4 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.
