Automated Corrections for Materials Design of Ionic Systems: AFLOW-CCE — •Rico Friedrich1,2, Marco Esters1, Corey Oses1, Stuart Ki1, Maxwell J. Brenner1, David Hicks1, Michael J.

Materials databases such as AFLOW [1] leverage ab initio calculations for autonomous materials design. The predictive power critically relies on accurate formation enthalpies — quantifying the thermodynamic stability of a system. For ionic materials such as oxides and nitrides, standard DFT leads to errors of several hundred meV/atom [2,3].

We have recently developed the "coordination corrected enthalpies" (CCE) method yielding highly accurate room temperature formation enthalpies with mean absolute errors down to 27 meV/atom [3]. Here, we introduce AFLOW-CCE [4] — our implementation of CCE into the AFLOW framework. It provides a tool where users can input a structure file and receive the CCE corrections, or even the CCE formation enthalpies if pre-calculated LDA, PBE or SCAN values are provided. The implementation features a command line tool, a web interface, and a Python environment.
