Abstract
Similar to commercial anatase samples, a well-resolved EPR spectrum ha s been observed in anatase-TiO2 prepared by Rhone-Poulenc. Using the X and Q-band microwave frequencies, it has been demonstrated that the s pectrum is formed by two signals. One, constituted by a fine structure , has been attributed to Cr3+ ions and the other to Cr5+. It seems tha t these species are responsible for the spectrum when they are simulta neously present in anatase.
