Sol–gel synthesis of doped Cu2V2O7 fine particles showing giant negative thermal expansion

We report the sol–gel synthesis of Cu2V2O7 fine particles, in which some of the constituent Cu is replaced with other elements. The sintered body of Zn substituted β-Cu1.8Zn0.2V2O7 shows a large negative thermal expansion (NTE) over a wide temperature range due to microstructural effects peculiar to...
