Negative thermal expansion in isotropic crystals
Abstract
. There is a long-standing and well-demonstrated importance of glass ceramics for many technical and domestic applications, which practically achieve many of the goals of the NTE materials community. In the light of this, it is our feeling that the key achievement of much of NTE research over the past 30 years has not so much been in terms of finding alternative NTE materials as in what we have been able to learn from these materials, which in turn has enabled us to elucidate the general principles that underpin our understanding of how NTE materials work.
