Heat capacity, lattice dynamics, and thermodynamic stability of the negative thermal expansion material HfMo2O8
(2007-06)
We explore the lattice dynamics of the negative thermal expansion material, cubic HfMo2O8,
through analysis of its heat capacity (measured from 0.5 to 300 K) and its room-temperature Raman
spectrum. Its heat capacity is ...
Low thermal conductivity of the negative thermal expansion material, HfMo2O8
(2007-04)
The thermal conductivity of the cubic polymorph of hafnium molybdate, HfMo2O8, was determined
over the temperature range of 2-400 K. The values of thermal conductivity were low (0.64 +/- 0.15 W
m(-1) K-1 at T=300 K for a ...
Technique for determination of accurate heat capacities of volatile, powdered, or air-sensitive samples using relaxation calorimetry
(2006-09)
We introduce a four-step technique for the accurate determination of the heat capacity of
volatile or air-sensitive samples using relaxation calorimetry. The samples are encapsulated in a
hermetically sealed differential ...
