Materials Cloud

Materials Cloud is a web platform conceived to assist Materials Scientists

A platform for open science with educational, research, and archiving tools, simulation software and services, curated and raw data.

Scientific Highlights

  • Using alchemical compression and machine learning to describe high-entropy alloys

  • Crucial role of inter-site Hubbard interactions for the correct energetics of spinel Li-ion cathode materials

  • Temperature dependence of energy band gap suggests ZrTe5 is a weak topological insulator

  • Graph neural network parametrized potentials describe intermolecular interactions

Feature Stories

  • Can quantum computers be the key to more natural and efficient modelling of materials?

  • MARVEL and CSCS: a partnership built for exa-scale computing in materials science

  • AiiDA lab allows researchers to “focus on science rather than on setting up simulations”

  • MARVEL researchers, partners present work on materials for energy at Materials Science Day
