Layered (NH4)2V3O8 exhibits ZTE and NTE behaviors along the c-axis, and ZTE nature along the a-axis owing to swing-like movement of vanadyl in VO4 tetrahedra and transverse vibration of bridged O atoms connecting VO4 tetrahedra.

In complex perovskite-type oxides which have been studied as cathode materials, the thermal expansion coefficient increases with the increase in the oxygen ionic conductivity. In the present study, with the aim to explain such a behavior, a research has been carried out from a chemical bond point of view. For oxides A1-xA′xB1-yB′yO with perovskite structure, the ionicity of the individual bond, A-O and B-O, and the thermal expansion coefficient of mixed compounds were estimated by using semiempirical methods. It has been shown that the thermal expansion coefficient and the oxygen ionic conductivity decrease with the increase in the difference of the ionicity between A-O and B-O bonds. It is also found that the tolerance factor and the specific free volume are linearly correlated with the difference of ionicity.

This review presents the history of materials in the A2M3O12 and related ceramic families, including their unusual thermal expansion and the present understanding of its mechanism, and related factors such as hydroscopicity and the monoclinic to orthorhombic phase transition. Other properties, including thermomechanical, thermal and ionic conduction and optical properties, are presented in terms of current knowledge, challenges and opportunities for applications. One of the largest challenges is the production of monoliths, and various methods for consolidation and sintering are summarized. These ceramics have considerable promise when combined with other materials, and recent advances in such composites are presented. These matters are placed in the context of the potential applications of negative and near-zero thermal expansion ceramics, which still present challenges for future materials researchers.

Substitutional doping of Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ on the Sm-site in SmCoO3 is reported to improve both electronic and ionic conductivities for applications as solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathodes.

Nickel sulfide inclusions have been implicated in the spontaneous fracture of large windows of tempered plate glass. Two alternative explanations for the fracture-initiating behaviour of these inclusions have been proposed: (1) the volume increase which accompanies the α to β phase transformation in stoichiometric NiS, and (2) the thermal expansion mismatch between the nickel sulfide phases and the glass matrix. The microstructure and microchemistry of the small inclusions (80 to 250 μm spheres), needed to determine the cause of fracture, have not been well characterized hitherto. The aim of this communication is to report a detailed TEM and EDS study of the inclusions.
