Control of charge state of dopants in insulating crystals: Case study of Ti-doped sapphire

We study mechanisms of control of charge state and concentration of different point defects in doped insulating crystals. The approach is based on the density functional theory calculations. We apply it to the problem of obtaining of Ti-doped sapphire crystals with high figure of merit (FOM). The FO...
