We employ the numerical linked-cluster expansion to study finite-temperature properties of the uniform cubic lattice Hubbard model in the thermodynamic limit for a wide range of interaction strengths and densities. We carry out the…

The prototypical phase change material GeTe shows an enigmatic phase transition at Tc ca. 650 K from rhombohedral (R3m) to cubic (Fm-3m) symmetry. While local probes see little change in bonding, in contrast, average structure probes imply…

We use variable-temperature (150--300\,K) single-crystal X-ray diffraction to re-examine the interplay between structure and dynamics in the ambient phase of the isotropic negative thermal expansion (NTE) material Cd(CN)$_2$. We find strong…

We have investigated magnetoelastic effects in multiferroic HoMnO$_3$ below the antiferromagnetic phase transition $T_N \approx 75$ K by neutron powder diffraction. The lattice parameter $a$ of the hexagonal unit cell of HoMnO$_3$ decrease…

Phonon properties and the lattice thermal conductivity are not generally understood to be sensitive to magnetic fields. Using an applied field to change MnBi2Te4 between antiferromagnetic (AFM), canted (CAFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) phases…

Ca2RuO4 undergoes a metal-insulator transition at TMI = 357 K, followed by a well-separated transition to antiferromagnetic order at TN = 110 K. Dilute Cr doping for Ru reduces the temperature of the orthorhombic distortion at TMI and…

We describe a web-based tool (PASCal; Principal Axis Strain Calculator) aimed at simplifying the determination of principal coefficients of thermal expansion and compressibilities from variable-temperature and variable-pressure lattice…

Analytical relations for the glass transition temperature, $T_g$, and the crystal melting temperature, $T_m$, are developed on the basis of nonaffine lattice dynamics. The proposed relations explain: (i) the seemingly universal factor of…

Origin and composition dependence of the anisotropic thermomechanical properties are elucidated for Ba1-xSrxZn2Si2O7 (BZS) solid solutions. The high-temperature phase of BZS shows negative thermal expansion (NTE) along one crystallographic…

The negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, which can act as thermal-expansion compensators to counteract the positive thermal expansion, have great applications merit in precision engineering. However, the exploration of NTE behavior…

High-resolution thermal-expansion and specific-heat measurements were performed on single crystalline BaFe2(As1-xPx)2 (0 < x < 0.33, x = 1). The observation of clear anomalies allows to establish the thermodynamic phase diagram which…

Heat conduction through the Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) lattices is numerically investigated in the presence of a deformable substrate potential. It is found that the deformation of the substrate potential has a strong influence on heat…

We investigate the behavior of the resistivity around valence transition in the one-dimensional extended periodic Anderson model (PAM) with the Coulomb repulsion between f and conduction electron U_fc. By using 1/N-expansion in the leading…

We discovered unique uniaxial negative thermal expansion (NTE) behavior for a weak-itinerant-ferromagnetic phase of CoZr$_{2}$H$_{3.49}$. CoZr$_{2}$ is known as a superconductor exhibiting uniaxial NTE along the $c$-axis, which is called…

This study explores the relationship between phonon dynamics and negative thermal expansion (NTE) in Cu$_x$Ni$_{2-x}$(CN)$_4$. The partial replacement of nickel (II) by copper (II) in Ni(CN)$_2$ leads to a line phase, CuNi(CN)$_4$ (x = 1),…

Zn(CN)2 and Ni(CN)2 are known for exhibiting anomalous thermal expansion over a wide temperature range. The volume thermal expansion coefficient for the cubic, three dimensionally connected material, Zn(CN)2, is negative ({\alpha}V = -51 x…

Rubber compounds for pressure sealing application typically have inferior dimensional stability with temperature fluctuations compared with their steel counterparts. This effect may result in seal leakage failures when subjected to…

The thermal expansion effect of silicon nanowires (SiNW) in [100], [110] and [111] directions with different sizes is theoretically investigated. At low temperatures, all SiNW studied exhibit thermal contraction effect due to the lowest…

Thermally-densified hafnium terephthalate UiO-66(Hf) is shown to exhibit the strongest isotropic negative thermal expansion (NTE) effect yet reported for a metal-organic framework (MOF). Incorporation of correlated vacancy defects within…

We indicate the fundamental rationale underlying the control of temperature and the manipulation of thermal flux, with reference to a multilayered composite material. We show that when the orientation of the layers in the composite is…
