Titanosapphire or Titappire (here introduced name).
Stoichometric checkerboard compounds between the isostructural gemstones of
leukosapphire and tistarite (these share the hematite structure)
Hematite can be a third end-member.
It is mechanically weaker but brings conductivity.
Possibly making for a tunable semiconcuctor.
- White sapphire Al2O3
- Tistarite Ti2O3
- Hematite Fe2O3
