Abstract

A large-scale materials database including literature and factual data, which is under construction at the Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University is introduced featuring the collections of ternary amorphous formation phase diagrams. The database is arranged as a multimedia type, including both text and images, which is especially important in materials research. The object-oriented method is also applied to construct the database so it can predict new compositions to form an amorphous phase from existing data.
