AFLOW (Automatic-FLOW)

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

A highly efficient framework for crystal structure exploration and property prediction dedicated to material science calculations. This application can automate the setup, execution, and analysis of the results of calculations based primarily on the density functional theory. It provides data on more than millions of crystal structures and can be used for high throughput calculations for material exploration. It also interfaces with various DFT codes (VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, etc.).

PubChem

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

Open Chemistry database that has been in operation since 2004 under the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the United States. It mainly targets data for small molecules, but information on large molecules such as lipids and peptides are also collected. The database can be accessed via web browser or PUG REST API. The data can be also downloaded from an FTP site.
