Abstract

Controlling the mechanical properties of functional materials is a major challenge in materials science. Industries such as aerospace and telecommunications demand seamless performance across a range of temperature and pressure conditions, and the eventual hope is that effects such as thermal expansion might be constrained or indeed eliminated altogether.
