Using a thorough DFT analysis, this work investigates the electronic, magnetic, elastic, and optical phenomena in the cubic and orthorhombic phases of SmCrO3. The study explores the distinct qualities of both phases, such as their electronic features, magnetic behaviors, and elastic responses, using the GGA-PBE and mBJ-GGA-PBE methodologies. The study highlights the potential of SmCrO3 cubic and orthorhombic structures in spintronics and magnetic device applications by confirming their half-metallic nature. A deeper understanding of the electronic structure and magnetic stability of the materials results from the intricate interplay of spin effects and thorough investigation of magnetic interactions.
