The +2 oxidation state of Cr incorporated into the crystal lattice of UO2

Uranium dioxide is commonly doped with chromium to improve its performance as a nuclear fuel. Here, with the aid of ab initio simulations and re-evaluation of experimental data, the oxidation state of chromium in the uranium dioxide lattice is identified as +2, not the widely believed +3.
