| Abstract: | Wen a material is heated, we expect it to expand, and when squeezed on all sides by hydrostatic pressure, we expect it to shrink, but materials or structures can respond in unexpected ways. Some may exhibit negative thermal expansion (NTE)—shrinking when heated (1–8)—or negative compressibility (NC) (8–13)—expanding when subjected to a positive hydrostatic pressure—and some may exhibit both properties.
