Yttrium hydride is rare earth metal hydride including YH2 and YH3. YH2 is orthocentric cubic structure. YH3 is cubic structure. Yttrium dihydride is metallic conductor, but the resistance is lower than yttrium metal. Hydride closee to yttrium trihydride turn to semiconductor from metallic conductor.
