Synthesis of the material: The Ca2TiRuO6 material was produced in the laboratory by the solid-state reaction technique from high purity (99.99%) CaO, TiO2 and RuO2 powdered oxides. The powders were dried at 120 °C for 1 h, weighed on a 0.1 mg precision balance in stoichiometric proportions sufficient to make up 500 mg samples, then ground in an agate mortar and pressed into 9 mm diameter cylindrical pellets under a pressure of 20 MPa. Samples were first thermally calcined at 1000 °C for 48 hours to provide sufficient energy to initiate the reaction. The samples were then macerated for 30 min, pressed again and sintered at 1150 °C for 48 hours to continue the reactive process and facilitate the growth of the characteristic grains of this family of materials.
