- Title
Negative linear compressibility: Giant response.
- Authors
Gatt, Ruben; Caruana-Gauci, Roberto; Grima, Joseph N.
- Abstract
The article discusses the study conducted by Andrew Cairns and colleagues on the discovery of an exceptionally large negative linear compressibility (NLC) in the α-polymorph of zinc dicyanoaurate (Zn(Au(CN)2)2). It states that Cairns and colleagues' study has emphasized the necessity of research on NLC. Moreover, it mentions the use of the discoveries and research developments on the advancement of functional materials with exceptional properties.
