Abstract
The article reports on several studies that determine the phonon density of states using inelastic neutron scattering measurements. It reviews examples of the results from the mesurements on a couple of negative thermal expansion (NTE) compounds. It points out that the distribution in bond-lengths is capable to produce additional features in the vibrational spectrum.
