Abstract
Combinatorial methods, by which large collections or libraries of comp ounds are synthesized and screened for a particular physical or chemic al property, are being applied to inorganic and organic materials incl uding superconductors, phosphors, ferroelectric materials, polymers an d catalysts. This technology promises to significantly increase both t he efficiency of the materials discovery and optimization process, as well as our information base relating to materials properties.
