High Solubility of Hetero-Valence Ion （Cu^2＋） for Reducing Phase Transition and Thermal Expansion of ZrV1.6P0.4O7

Large thermal expansion at room temperature and high phase transition temperature of ZrV2O7 limit its practical applications and are reduced by the high solubility of hetero-valence ion （Cu^2＋） on the basis of an equal-valence substitution of P^5＋ for V^5＋. The temperature-dependent Raman spectra show that Zr0.9CU0.1V1.6P0.4O6.9 maintains a normal parent cubic structure till 173 K and transforms to a 3 × 3 × 3 cubic superstructure below 173K. Temperature dependent x-ray diffraction patterns of Zr0.9CU0.1V1.6P0.4O6.9 show near zero and negative thermal expansion. High solubility of lower valence Cu^2＋ relates to an equal-valence substitution of smaller pH for P^5＋, which extends the bond angle of V（P）-O-V in ZrV1.6P0.4O7 close to 180°. The change of microstructure is considered to be responsible for reduced phase transition temperature and thermal expansion.     

Near-zero thermal expansion in β-CuZnV2O7 in a large temperature range

We report a new type of near-zero thermal expansion material β-CuZnV₂O₇ in a large temperature range from 173 K to 673 K. It belongs to a monoclinic structure (C2/c space group) in the whole temperature range. No structural phase transition is observed at atmospheric pressure based on the x-ray diffraction and Raman experiment. The high-pressure Raman experiment demonstrates that two structural phase transitions exist at 0.94 GPa and 6.53 GPa, respectively. The mechanism of negative thermal expansion in β-CuZnV₂O₇ is interpreted by the variations of the angles between atoms intuitively and the phonon anharmonicity intrinsically resorting to the negative Grüneisen parameter.
