Description

Structure maps have always held out the allure of being useful guides in materials design. A novel method for predicting candidate structure types demonstrates that the Pettifor maps for binary compounds are surprisingly predictive and offers a natural way for extending the predictive power of the maps to higher multicomponent systems.
