RESEARCH USE

Where AFLOW fits

AFLOW is most relevant for querying computed properties and crystal prototypes. It should be treated as one component of a research workflow rather than as a substitute for reading source material, checking methods, or validating scientific conclusions.

What to evaluate before use

  • Check whether its Web, API workflow fits your existing research environment and export requirements.
  • The recorded access model is free; limits, institutional terms, and commercial-use conditions may change.
  • No open-source code is recorded for this product. Review its data handling and retention terms before uploading confidential material.
