Dysprosium titanate (Dy₂Ti₂O₇) is an inorganic compound, a ceramic of the titanate family, with pyrochlore structure.

Dysprosium titanate, like holmium titanate and , is a spin ice material. In 2009, quasiparticles resembling magnetic monopoles were observed at low temperature and high magnetic field.^[2]^[3]

Dysprosium titanate (Dy₂Ti O₅) is used since 1995 as material for control rods of commercial nuclear reactor.^[4]
