SUMMARY:MS2D - Computer-Aided Design of High-Performance Thermoelectric Ma
 terials
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nThe heat-to-electricity conversion (one aspec
 t of thermoelectricity) is known for more than two centuries. However, the
 rmoelectricity has hardly found its way to large-scale deployment due to t
 he lack of materials with a figure of merit ZT greater than 2. One reason 
 for this is that the figure of merit combines properties that counteract o
 ne another. Another reason is that the experimental search for new TE mate
 rials have reached a plateau in terms of chemical diversity, design, and m
 anufacturing of materials, leading to best material ZT values of at most 1
 .6-1.9. A new paradigm has to be found to relaunch the discovery of TE mat
 erials, and the computer-aided design of materials could be such a paradig
 m. In this mini-symposium we will discuss the recently developed algorithm
 s (e.g., basin hoping, evolutionary, genetic algorithms) that foster the d
 iscovery of new chemical structures, the artificial-intelligence-based one
 s to predict both new structures and their properties and their potential 
 synergistic association to unveil new generation of thermoelectrics and im
 prove their efficiency.\n\nHigh-Throughput Search for Optimal Thermoelectr
 ic Performance across the Materials Cloud Wannier Database\n\nWe perform a
  first-principles, high-throughput search for bulk materials displaying op
 timal thermoelectric performance. For this, we screen the Materials Cloud 
 database of experimentally known 3D crystals (MC3D, https://www.materialsc
 loud.org/discover/mc3d), and capture their electronic structure us...\n\n\

 Despite important breakthroughs in the last decade, the calculation of tem

 especially in the vicinity of structural phase transitions [1]. In this ta

 Novel Functional Materials\n\nThe compositional and structural variety inh
