Journal ArticleDOI

Commentary: The Materials Project: A materials genome approach to accelerating materials innovation

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

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

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

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

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.
