The Magn\'eli phase Ti$_4$O$_7$ is an important transition metal oxide with a wide range of applications because of its interplay between charge, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom. At low temperatures, it has non-trivial magnetic states…

Structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Ti$_5$O$_9$ have been studied by \textit{ab initio} methods in low-, intermediate- and high-temperature phases. We have found the charge and orbital order in all three phases to be…

In this Thesis, a study of the electronic structure of two Ti-based oxide systems, TiO2 thin films and the ultra-thin LaAlO3-SrTiO3 (LAO-STO) heterojunctions, is given. A weak room-temperature ferromagnetism (FM) has been detected in…

The Magneli phase Ti4O7 exhibits two sharp jumps in resistivity with coupled structural transitions as a function of temperature at Tc1=142 K and Tc2=154 K. We have studied electronic structure changes across the two transitions using 7 eV…

The deposition of a thin oxide layer at metal/semiconductor interfaces has been previously reported as a means of reducing contact resistance in 2D electronics. Using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy with in-situ Ti deposition, we fabricate…

Oxygen-deficient TiO$_2$ in the rutile structure as well as the Ti$_3$O$_5$ Magn{\'e}li phase is investigated within the charge self-consistent combination of density functional theory (DFT) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). It is…

We synthesize a new titanium-oxide compound AlTi2O5 with pseudobrookite-type structure. The formal valence of Ti is 3.5+ that is the same as the Magneli compound Ti4O7 and the spinel compound LiTi2O4. AlTi2O5 exhibits insulating behavior in…

Transition metal oxides are considered promising thermoelectric materials for harvesting high-temperature waste heat due to their stability, abundance and low toxicity. Despite their typically strong ionic character, they can exhibit…

The electronic properties of two spinels Fe$_3$O$_4$ and Fe$_2$SiO$_4$ are studied by the density functional theory. The local Coulomb repulsion $U$ and the Hund's exchange $J$ between the $3d$ electrons on iron are included. For $U=0$,…

Titanium dioxide has been extensively studied in the rutile or anatase phases, while its high-pressure phases are less well understood, despite that many are thought to have interesting optical, mechanical and electrochemical properties.…

Magnetic topological insulators (MTIs) have received a lot of attention due to the existence of various quantum phenomena such as quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) and topological magnetoelectric effect, etc. The intrinsic…

An unusual successive phase transition from superconducting (SC) to antiferromagnetic (AF) phases was discovered via ^{75}As and ^{27}Al nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in (Fe_2As_2)(Ca_6(Al, Ti)_4O_y) with four (Al, Ti)O layers…

The properties and mechanism of the magnetic phase transition of the perovskite-type Ti oxides, which is driven by the Ti-O-Ti bond angle distortion, are studied theoretically by using the effective spin and pseudospin Hamiltonian with…

We have measured resistivity as a function of temperature and pressure of Ti4O7 twinned crystals using different contact configurations. Pressures over 4kbar depress the localization of bipolarons and allow the study of the electrical…
