Structure and properties of mixed valence titanates, (LixVO)La2Ti3O10

Abstract

A series of mixed valence Ruddlesden–Popper perovskites have been prepared by reductive intercalation. The new materials can be described by the general formula (LixVO)La2Ti3O10. X-Ray powder diffraction data shows that lithium intercalation into (VO)La2Ti3O10 takes place in a topotactic manner. The magnetic properties of the new compounds depend on the amount of intercalated lithium. For x = 0.83, and 1.4, in (LixVO)La2Ti3O10, these materials are Curie–Weiss paramagnets, while for x = 1.8 magnetic order with a predisposition towards ferromagnetism is observed. This paper describes the structure, electronic and magnetic properties of this new series of compounds.
