From Simplicity to Complexity: Substituent‐Controlled Z ′ Multiplicity as a Design Principle for Thermally Robust Yet Programmable Anisotropic Expansion

Anisotropic thermal expansion in molecular crystals has predominantly been reported for low-Z' systems (Z' ≤ 2), in which only a few independent molecules occupy the asymmetric unit. In such crystals, thermal expansion is often interpreted using simplified models based on rigid m...
