This study reveals that the negative thermal expansion in NdFe(CN)6 is mainly attributed to the vibrations of N atoms in its molecular structure, as confirmed by experimental and computational results.
A large negative thermal expansion (NTE) (alpha v=-4.1x10-5K-1, 100-525 K) has been discovered in NdFe(CN)6.Here, the synchrotron X-ray diffraction and lattice dynamics calculations using the density functional theory were conducted tounderstand the NTE in NdFe(CN)6. The information obtained on the bond nature of the Nd-N???C-Fe linkage and on the atomicthermal vibrations suggests that the transverse vibrations of the-N???C-group, in particular from N atoms, produced the NTE inNdFe(CN)6. This is corroborated by the calculated Gru??neisen parameters, which confirm the relationship between NTE and CNatomic vibrations. The results provide a helpful contribution toward the realization of new materials with negative or controllablethermal expansion
