Y2MgTiO6
Y2MgTiO6 is a stable, wide-band-gap insulating oxide containing yttrium, magnesium, and titanium that is considered a promising candidate for experimental synthesis.

About Y2MgTiO6
Y2MgTiO6 is an insulating complex oxide composed of yttrium, magnesium, titanium, and oxygen. Its electronic character is defined by a wide band gap, which is characteristic of stable dielectric materials that do not conduct electricity under standard conditions.
This compound is notable for its proximity to the thermodynamic hull, suggesting it is a viable candidate for experimental synthesis. With multiple reported structures across research databases, it represents a significant subject for structural studies in the field of inorganic material design.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Y2MgTiO6, aggregated across 3 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.
