“…The grown crystals were shown by X-ray diffraction to have the 1T-Cdl2 type structure with lattice parameters of a = 3.406 Á and c = 5.703 Á. This c value corresponds to the nonstoichiometric Ti105S2 according to Thompson et al,2 indicating the presence of a small amount of interstitial Ti atoms. Powders of TiS2 were hydrolyzed in NaOH solution with pH >10 to form NaxTi2_xOx (0 < x < 1).…”
