Commentary: The Materials Project: A materials genome approach to accelerating materials innovation
Anubhav Jain,Shyue Ping Ong,Geoffroy Hautier,Wei-Wei Chen,William D. Richards,Stephen Dacek,Shreyas Cholia,Dan Gunter,David Skinner,Gerbrand Ceder,Kristin A. Persson +10 more
TL;DR: The Materials Project (www.materialsproject.org) is a core program of the Materials Genome Initiative that uses high-throughput computing to uncover the properties of all known inorganic materials as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Python Materials Genomics (pymatgen): A robust, open-source python library for materials analysis
Shyue Ping Ong,William D. Richards,Anubhav Jain,Geoffroy Hautier,Michael Kocher,Shreyas Cholia,Dan Gunter,Vincent Chevrier,Kristin A. Persson,Gerbrand Ceder +9 more
TL;DR: The pymatgen library as mentioned in this paper is an open-source Python library for materials analysis that provides a well-tested set of structure and thermodynamic analyses relevant to many applications, and an open platform for researchers to collaboratively develop sophisticated analyses of materials data obtained both from first principles calculations and experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interface Stability in Solid-State Batteries
William D. Richards,Lincoln J. Miara,Yan Wang,Jae Chul Kim,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the thermodynamics of formation of resistive interfacial phases are examined and the predicted interfacial phase formation is well correlated with experimental interfacial observations and battery performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design principles for solid-state lithium superionic conductors
Yan Wang,William D. Richards,Shyue Ping Ong,Shyue Ping Ong,Lincoln J. Miara,Jae Chul Kim,Yifei Mo,Yifei Mo,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder +10 more
TL;DR: It is found that an underlying body-centred cubic-like anion framework, which allows direct Li hops between adjacent tetrahedral sites, is most desirable for achieving high ionic conductivity, and that this anion arrangement is present in several known fast Li-conducting materials and other fast ion conductors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The thermodynamic scale of inorganic crystalline metastability
Wenhao Sun,Wenhao Sun,Stephen Dacek,Shyue Ping Ong,Geoffroy Hautier,Anubhav Jain,William D. Richards,Anthony Gamst,Kristin A. Persson,Kristin A. Persson,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder,Gerbrand Ceder +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a large-scale data-mining study of the Materials Project, a high-throughput database of density functional theory-calculated energetics of Inorganic Crystal Structure Database structures, was conducted to explicitly quantify the thermodynamic scale of metastability for 29,902 observed inorganic crystalline phases.
