The region of neutron-rich Cr isotopes has garnered much attention in recent years due to a rapid onset of collectivity near neutron number N= 40. We report here on the first γ-ray spectroscopy beyond the (4+ 1) state in 62, 64Cr, using nucleon removal reactions from several projectiles within a rare-isotope beam cocktail. A candidate for the 6+ state in 64Cr is presented as well as one for, possibly, the second excited 0+ state in 62Cr. The results are discussed in comparison to the LNPS shell-model predictions that allow for neutron excitations across the N= 40 harmonic oscillator gap into the g9/2 and d5/2 orbitals. The calculated level schemes for 62, 64Cr reveal intriguing collective structures. From the predicted neutron particle-hole character of the low-lying states in these Cr isotopes, 62Cr emerges as a transitional system on the path to the center of the N= 40 island of inversion.
