The localized states of an Al impurity appear to differ radically from the host Ti atomic structure; V present as a dilute solute appears to join the Ti lattice smoothly. Very small isotropic and anisotropic Knight shifts were observed for ('27)Al in Ti. This implies an absence of an orbital contribution and a small value for the s conduction electron density at the local Fermi surface in the vicinity of Al in Ti. A sizeable isotropic and anisotropic Knight shift was observed for ('51)V in Ti. This is thought to be the result of a large orbital contribution. The substitutional vanadium retains much of the character of V, but experiences the symmetry of the Ti lattice. Four outer electrons of V may form nearest neighbor bonds similarly to those between Ti atoms in pure titanium. The one extra electron on the V may be more s-like in character. Measurement of the temperature dependence of K(,ax) and EFG values at V solute atoms in a Ti matrix show that both K(,ax) and EFG increase as temperature decreases. The local electric field gradient contribution from non-s-electrons q(,non-s-el) is about 2 to 5 times larger than the q(,ion) values in magnitude.
