“…For example, it is well known the tetravalent chromium cation strongly favors tetrahedral coordination over octahedral coordination and the ionic radius is too small to be incorporated into perovskite structures, although these observations are not without exceptions. 10 Previously, alkaline chromium oxide perovskites such as ACrO3 (A = Ca, Sr) have been stabilized under high pressures, 11,12 and Arevalo-Lopez and Attfield et al have discovered new oxygen-vacancy ordered phases CaCrO3-x (x = 0.33, 0.4, 0.5) 13,14 and SrCrO3-y (y = 0.2, 0.25), 15 which were synthesized by reduction of ACrO3 (A = Ca, Sr) with hydrogen gas. CaCrO2.5 was found to adopt the brownmillerite structure.…”
