The effect of substitution on the intercalation properties of anatase-structured titania has been investigated in first principles calculations. Ti4+-ions were substituted by Zr4+, Al3+ and Sc3+ respectively and O2- -ions by N3-. For each compound the open circuit voltage profile (OCV) was calculated and compared to anatase. Lithium intercalation proceeds as in pure anatase through a phase separation into a Li-rich and a Li-poor phase in all cases examined here. The Li-content of the phases depends on the nature of the dopant and its concentration. Substitution by N3--ions does not lead to lower potentials, whereas doping with trivalent Sc3+- and Al3+- ions decreases the intercalation voltage. Substitution by tetravalent Zr4+-ions within the range of solubility does not significantly affect the OCV of anatase. A correlation is observed between the predicted equilibrium voltage and the participation of the Ti4+-ions in accommodating the donated electron density upon lithiation.
