Alexandria
Our Alexandria database has a series of different datasets.
- 3D Materials (PBE) [Sci. Adv. 7, eabi7948 (2021); Adv. Mater., 2210788 (2023)] (2.5M entries): Download from Materials Cloud.
- 3D Materials (PBEsol and SCAN) [Sci. Data 9, 64 (2022)] (450k entries): Download from Materials Cloud or access through optimade.
- 2D Materials (PBE) [2D Mater. 10, 035007 (2023)] (22k entries): Download from Materials Cloud.
These files were generated with pymatgen. They can be loaded by using the following code:
import json, bz2
from pymatgen.entries.computed_entries import ComputedStructureEntry
with bz2.open("dataset.json.bz2") as fh:
data = json.loads(fh.read().decode('utf-8'))
entries = [ComputedStructureEntry.from_dict(i) for i in data["entries"]]
print("Found " + str(len(entries)) + " entries")
print("\nEntry:\n", entries[0])
print("\nStructure:\n", entries[0].structure)

Exchange-correlation functionals for band gaps of solids: Benchmark, reparametrization and machine learning
[NPJ Comput. Mater. 6, 96 (2020)]
Machine learning models for the the prediction of more accurate band gaps can be found here.
High-throughput study of oxynitride, oxyfluoride and nitrofluoride perovskites [J. Mater. Chem. A (2021)] You can download an array of ComputedStructureEntry for all structures or directly the cif files.
Validation of Pseudopotential Calculations for the Electronic Band Gap of Solids
[J. Chem. Theor. Comput. (2020)]
Here you can download the HLE16 and SLOC pseudopotentials.
Finding new crystal compounds using chemical similarity [NPJ Comput. Mater. 7, 12 (2021)] You can download an array of ComputedStructureEntry for all structures (0, 1, 2) or directly the cif files.
Aenet patches
[Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. (2019)]
Here you can find patches for the aenet package that allow for
the training of the forces and stresses. You can download a diff for versions 1.0.0 and 2.0.3, the full source code of versions 1.0.0 and 2.0.3, and an example.
Convex hull (2018.5.26) In our internal database we have more than 3000 compounds that are on the convex hull and that are not included (yet) in the Materials Project database. If you want to study these materials, or just to include them in your own convex hull, you can download the cif files with the crytallographic structures, or a pickle with the ComputedStructureEntrys (compatible with Materials Project) that you can easily add to your scripts. You can also download our version of the get_form_energy.py script.
Prediction of stable tI10 and tP10 ternary compounds
[J. Chem. Phys. (2018)]
You can download an array of ComputedStructureEntry for all tI10 and
tP10 studied in this work.
DFTB+ parameter sets for group IV elements
[J. Chem. Theory Comput. (2018)]
You can download both several versions of the parameters, as well as the corresponding training and test sets.
High-throuput study of Heuslers
[unpublished]
Here you can find an array of ComputedStructureEntry for all all cubic Heusler
compounds (space group 255) with composition ABC2.
You can also download the relaxed crystal structures (cif format) for all systems that are close to the convex hull
of stability.
High-throuput study of perovskites
[Chem. Mat. (2017)]
Here you can find a pickle or a json with
the DFT calculations of around 228000 (relaxed) cubic perovskites (space group 221) with composition
ABC3, where A, B, C are all element up to Bi excluding rare gases and lanthanides.
You can load directly the pickle with the BorgQueen module.
These quantities were obtained with pymatgen and the materials project database.
