DyCrO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Dy(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and six equivalent O(1) atoms. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 35-36°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to two equivalent Dy(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ODy2Cr2 trigonal pyramids.
DyCrO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Dy(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and six equivalent O(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.22 Å) and one longer (2.29 Å) Dy(1)-O(2) bond length. There are a spread of Dy(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.27-2.66 Å. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 35-36°. Both Cr(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.98 Å. There are two shorter (1.99 Å) and two longer (2.00 Å) Cr(1)-O(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to two equivalent Dy(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ODy2Cr2 trigonal pyramids.
