Abstract: | The results of electron structure calculations for the single clusters TiC620?, TiC5□16?, TiC4□212?, TiC3□38?, TiC5□16.64?, TiC4□213.32?; and double clusters Ti2C1032?, Ti2C8□224?, Ti2C10□32.72? and Ti2C8□224.80? by the semi-empirical Mulliken—Wolfsberg—Helmholtz method with self-consistency of charges and configurations are given. The data obtained are compared with measurements of the Ti 2p-level binding energies and X-ray photoelectron valence band spectra for TiCx(x = 0.86–0.97). The variation of the metal atom charge in the limits of the homogeneity region for TiC and the appearance of this effect as a chemical shift of the Ti 2p-level are discussed. A special set of cluster calculations was performed to check the possibility of Ti valency variation in the homogeneity region of TiCx. |
