Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is a counterintuitive physical phenomenon that the unit
cell volume of material usually contracts instead of expands upon heating. With two …

The oxidation and corrosion of metals are fundamental problems in materials science and
technology that have been studied using a large variety of experimental and computational …

The oxides of copper (CuxO) are fascinating materials due to their remarkable optical,
electrical, thermal and magnetic properties. Nanostructuring of CuxO can further enhance …

A combined experimental and theoretical study is reported on the vibrational properties of
tenorite CuO and paramelaconite Cu4O3. The optically active modes have been measured …

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is the phenomenon in which materials shrink rather than
expand on heating. Although NTE had been previously observed in a few simple materials …

Anomalous thermal expansion behaviour of several open frame-work compounds has been
extensively investigated using the techniques of inelastic neutron scattering and lattice …

This work aims at reviewing the most impactful results obtained on the development of Cu-
based photocathodes. The need of a sustainable exploitation of renewable energy sources …

We assess the accuracy and computational efficiency of the recently developed meta-
generalized gradient approximation (metaGGA) functional, restored regularized strongly …

Raman spectra of rutile titanium dioxide (TiO 2) were measured at temperatures from 100 to
1150 K. Each Raman mode showed unique changes with temperature. Beyond the volume …

The purpose of the present review is to provide a reference guide to the most recent data on
the properties of copper (I) oxide as well as on the atomic processes involved in the initial …
