Applicable Classes

Name Description Modifies Slot
CalcinationGaseousEnvironment The specific gaseous environment maintained during a calcination step
(e.g. "air", "N2", "10% O2/N2").

electronic properties of a catalyst relevant to activity descriptors
(d-band centre, band gap, Fermi energy).
no
Temperature A physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness. no
HeatingRate Rate of temperature change per unit time during a thermal ramp. no
BandGap Electronic band gap and its character (direct/indirect), with optional
many-body (GW) or excitonic corrections. Critical for photocatalyst

ThermodynamicStability Thermodynamic stability of a material or phase, characterised by formation
energy, convex hull distance, and competing phases. Used to screen catalyst
stability and predict synthesis feasibility.
no
