Syed, (1) most likely you not going to get a wafer but a plate of alumina (square not round). It just nature of the beast of ceramic. (2) most likely, you are going to get a alumina with glazed surface - sio2 rich layer with smooth surface - you need to look at substrate supplier that specialize LTCC or high temperature/high power device ceramic substrate. (3) as for TiO2 and Pt metallization, you might have to go to 3rd party house to specially made. Pt is easy - your school electron microscopy facility may have SEM sputter coater that uses Pt. As for TiO2, you are looking at specialized service. Most likely, you are not going to get a quote from one place that provide you with all of the stuff you want. For qty of 5 pieces, you better try some national research lab, see if anyone would do a special job without burn a hole in your pocket. (The semi house that have everything would never provide you with a special run that potentially contaminate their chamber). My 2 cents.

To add to that it would be beneficial if someone could quote us 5 100 mm alumina wafers with a SiO2 layer, TiO2 layer followed by a Pt layer. If you are able to accomplish this please email back and contact us. It will also help if sources can be referenced. Thank you for your help.
