Abstract
The reduction of TiO2 (anatase) subjected to high flux electron irradi ation (similar to 10(8) A/m(2)) to titanium monoxide is followed using the evolution of fine structure in the electron energy loss spectrum. Changes in extended fine structure are consistent with changes in int eratomic distance and the shift in d band onset clearly shows the tran sition from insulator to metal.
