Abstract/Summary:
The search for a new superconductor in an early transition metal oxide prompted the investigation of the ;LaTiO;The temperature dependent resistivity measurements for ;The properties of these materials are discussed in reference to the phenomenological phase diagram for perovskites proposed by Goodenough and high T;For low x, the compounds crystallize in a distorted perovskite structure (orthorhombic, Pbnm) that has corner shared TiO...
