The vastness of the space of possible multicomponent metal alloys is hoped to provide improved structural materials but also challenges traditional, low-throughput materials design efforts. Computational screening could narrow this search…

A recent paper by Juntao Huo et al [Chin. Phys. Lett. 39 (2022) 0464011] reported a correlation between the entropy of mixing (and the corresponding energy state) and the thermal stability and mechanical parameters, for three Zr-Ti-Cu-Ni-Be…

Thermoelectric (TE) materials are among very few sustainable yet feasible energy solutions of present time. This huge promise of energy harvesting is contingent on identifying/designing materials having higher efficiency than presently…

Thermoelectric materials can be used to construct devices which recycle waste heat into electricity. However, the best known thermoelectrics are based on rare, expensive or even toxic elements, which limits their widespread adoption. To…

Accelerating the design of materials with targeted properties is one of the key materials informatics tasks. The most common approach takes a data-driven motivation, where the underlying knowledge is incorporated in the form of…
