TiO2−ZnO powders in a molar ratio of 92:8 were subject to solution annealing via a reactive sintering route prior to X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopic studies. Charge-compensating defect clusters and planar faults predominantly parallel to (121) and (132) planes, analogous to t...
