Abstract
The physical and chemical configuration of anatase-form titanium dioxi de pigment particles was investigated with a field emission gun using transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (E DX). The particle was similar to 0.2 mu m in average size and had an a morphous-surface-layer thickness of 1-2 nm around the single-crystalli zed matrix. Niobium that had segregated in the amorphous surface layer was detected via EDX analysis.
