{"doi":"10.1063/1.4936239","title":"Magnetically driven negative thermal expansion in antiperovskite Ga1-<i>x</i>Mn<i>x</i>N0.8Mn3 (0.1 ≤ <i>x</i> ≤ 0.3)","abstract":"<jats:p>Negative thermal expansion (NTE) was investigated for Ga1−xMnxN0.8Mn3 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.3). As x increases, the temperature range where lattice contracts upon heating becomes broad and shifts to lower temperatures. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion beyond −40 ppm/K with a temperature interval of ∼50 K was obtained around room temperature in x = 0.2 and 0.25. Local lattice distortion which was thought to be intimately related to NTE is invisible in the X-ray pair distribution function of x = 0.3. Furthermore, a zero-field-cooling exchange bias was observed as a result of competing ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) orders. The concomitant FM order serves as an impediment to the growth of the AFM order, and thus broadens the temperature range of NTE. Our result suggests that NTE can be achieved in antiperovskite manganese nitrides by manipulating the magnetic orders without distorting the local structure.</jats:p>","journal":"Applied Physics Letters","year":2015,"id":29591,"datarank":1.5215274300415103,"base_score":3.6888794541139363,"endowment":3.6888794541139363,"self_citation_contribution":0.5533319181170905,"citation_network_contribution":0.9681955119244197,"self_endowment_contribution":0.5533319181170905,"citer_contribution":0.9681955119244197,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":39,"citer_count":26,"citers_with_citation_signal":25,"citers_with_endowment":25,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":null,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":false,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":null,"fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":162774,"name":"J.
