FactSage FSupsi ultrapure silicon database

List of systems and phases

The following tables summarise the contents of the FactSage FSupsi database in terms of the elements, systems and phases that it includes. The listings assist in phase selection for particular calculations by providing

- A LIST OF  the  SYSTEMS WHICH HAVE BEEN ASSESSED

- A LIST OF THE ASSESSED phases IN EACH OF THE SYSTEMS

The phases listed for the binary and ternary systems may be solution phases or stoichiometric intermetallic compound phases (ST). 

Use of the FactSage module VIEW DATA with the FSupsi compound and solution databases allows inspection of a phase listing for a defined combination of elements.

When searching for a particular system in the present lists, use alphabetical order of the elements.
