A perspective on auxetic nanomaterials
Nanomaterials have recently been found to exhibit auxetic behavior, or a negative Poisson’s ratio, whereby the lateral dimensions of the material expand, rather than shrink, in response to applied tensile loading. In this brief review, we use the form of question–answer to highlight key points and o...

Sumario: | Nanomaterials have recently been found to exhibit auxetic behavior, or a negative Poisson’s ratio, whereby the lateral dimensions of the material expand, rather than shrink, in response to applied tensile loading. In this brief review, we use the form of question–answer to highlight key points and outstanding issues related to the field of auxetic nanomaterials. |
