Titanium Oxide is used as multi-layer coating for laser mirrors, beam splitters and heat reflecting mirrors.
IUPAC name:
Titanium oxide
Determination procedure:
Structure was calculated using an ab initio method (HF 3-21G*) using
the software: Spartan'02, Wavefunction, Inc., Irvine, CA
Layman's explanation:
Titanium monoxide is an odorless, golden solid generally used to make thin films. It has been proposed as an electrically conducting metallization for both microelectronics and layered piezoelectronics applications. Multi-layer coatings of TiO are used for laser mirrors, beam splitters, heat reflecting mirrors. When exposed to air, TiO oxidizes spontaneously to TiO2.
