Recently, Black titania are reported in literature , We know Ti3+ ion is blue in colour and atlast only Ti3+ ion will generate in TiO2 lattice so how this originate Black colour. However concentration is increased it should not change Blue to Black.

Chemical reduction method using NaBH4 and Hydrogenated TiO2 both shows black colour at high defects concentration. I am curious to know as Ti3+ ion gives only blue colour so how Black colour originates ?
