Negative Thermal Expansion Properties of Sm0.85Sr0.15MnO3-δ
A novel negative thermal expansion (NTE) material composed of Sm0.85Sr0.15MnO3-δ was synthesized using the solid-state method. By allowing Sr2+ to partially replace Sm3+ in SmMnO3, the ceramic material Sm0.85Sr0.15MnO3-δ exhibits NTE properties between 360K and 873K, and its average negative thermal expansion coefficient was −10.08 × 10−6/K.

Which phonons contribute most to negative thermal expansion in ScF3?
Using calculations of the phonon distribution in ScF3 across the whole of reciprocal space, we show that the important phonons for the negative thermal expansion in this material are those associated with the rigid unit modes (RUMs) and associated quasi ...

Negative thermal expansion of water in hydrophobic nanospaces [PDF]
The density and intermolecular structure of water in carbon micropores (w = 1.36 nm) are investigated by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements between 20 K and 298 K. The SAXS results suggest that the density of the water in the micropores increased with increasing temperature over a wide temperature range (20-277

Magnetic ordering and negative thermal expansion in PrFeAsO [PDF]
We report the structure and magnetism of PrOFeAs, one of the parent phases of the newly discovered Fe-As superconductors, as measured by neutron powder diffraction. In common with other REOFeAs materials, a tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transition is found on cooling below 136 K and striped Fe magnetism with $k =$(1,0,1) is detected below $\sim$ 85 K ...
