Negative Thermal Expansion in Cubic Ice: A Collective Quantum Effect of the hydrogen-bond network
Loan Renaud, Tomasz Poreba, Richard Gaal +3
We report neutron powder diffraction measurements and path-integral molecular dynamics simulations of stacking-disorder-free cubic ice I, produced by topotactic degassing of C2…
