Description

In this STTR program, QuesTek Innovations LLC, a leader in ICME (Integrated Computational Materials Engineering), will partner with Professor Chris Wolverton from Northwestern University to develop a theory-driven compound discovery methodology. Our unique approach will involve high throughput DFT and data mining based approaches to both materials system screening and crystal structure prediction. At the end of the STTR, a proof of concept demonstration will be performed that validate the ability of the approach to discover new compounds.
