New technologies are made possible by new materials, and until
recently new materials could only be discovered experimentally.
Recent advances in solving the crystal structure prediction problem
means that the computational design of materials is now a reality.
Computational Materials Discovery provides a comprehensive review
of this field covering different computational methodologies as
well as specific applications of materials design. The book starts
by illustrating how and why first-principle calculations have
gained importance in the process of materials discovery. The book
is then split into three sections, the first exploring different
approaches and ideas including crystal structure prediction from
evolutionary approaches, data mining methods and applications of
machine learning. Section two then looks at examples of designing
specific functional materials with special technological relevance
for example photovoltaic materials, superconducting materials,
topological insulators and thermoelectric materials. The final
section considers recent developments in creating low-dimensional
materials. With contributions from pioneers and leaders in the
field, this unique and timely book provides a convenient entry
point for graduate students, researchers and industrial scientists
on both the methodologies and applications of the computational
design of materials.
