Abstract
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the defect structure of rutile by studying the electrical conductivity as a function of temperature and oxygen partial pressure. The electrical conductivity of rutile has been investigated by many authors1-7 as a function of temperature and pressure and various attempts to correlate the observed electrical properties with a discrete defect structure have not been fruitful. Consequently, it is felt that a systematic study of the conductivity over wide ranges of temperature and pressure would be of value in elucidating the defect structure.
