May 13, 2021: Database Release V2021.03.13 With New Formation Energy Correction SchemeThis release includes no new data but does change the way we correct formation energies. This reduces the overall error in formation energies in Materials Project by 7% when compared to experiment. The old correction scheme remains available for those who need to use it. More info in our release logs.
March 22, 2021: Supplemental Database Release V2021.03.22This release updates some older materials with new calculations, and adjusts our rules for deprecating older calculations. It does not contain any new materials. Thanks to the new calculations many materials that were previously deprecated are now accessible again. This release is in preparation for a switch to our new compatibility scheme which will improve our predictions of formation energy.
Feb. 8, 2021: Supplemental Database Release V2021.02.08This release updates some older materials with new calculations, and adjusts our rules for deprecating older calculations. It does not contain any new materials.
Sept. 8, 2020: Supplemental Database Release V2020.09.08This release addresses issues identified with the formation energies of a minority of materials. A second supplemental release is planned. More info in our release logs.
