A series of ${\mathrm{Yb}}_{2+x}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{2\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{O}}_{7\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\delta}}$ doped samples demonstrates the effects of off-stoichiometry on ${\mathrm{Yb}}_{2}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}$'s structure, properties, and magnetic ground state via x-ray diffraction, specific heat, and magnetization measurements. A stoichiometric single crystal of ${\mathrm{Yb}}_{2}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}$ grown by the traveling solvent floating zone technique (solvent = 30 wt % rutile ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$ and 70 …
