Bidirectional strain release in a thermosalient organic salt crystal induced by anisotropic thermal expansion and phase transformation

Chem. Commun., 2024, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D4CC04764H, Communication
Priyasha Harsha, Dinabandhu Das
Two-way release of strain followed by jumping in an organic salt crystal can be attributed to the anisotropic thermal expansion by heating and phase transformation followed by shear deformation of the crystals by cooling.
