We report the preparation of single phase samples of Gd1-xYxCrO3 (x = 0-0.30) compounds using the sol-gel method. Analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns shows a systematic decrease in lattice parameters a, c and volume of the unit cell with increase in Y concentration. Raman spectra recorded at room...
