Materials Project

Integrates with the Materials Project database to search materials by elements or formula and retrieve detailed properties including formation energies, band gaps, crystal systems, and stability data for computational materials science research.

This Materials Project MCP server provides access to the Materials Project database through three core tools: searching for materials by chemical elements, retrieving detailed material properties by ID, and finding materials by chemical formula. Built using FastMCP and the mp-api library, it returns structured data including formation energies, band gaps, crystal systems, space groups, density, and stability information for computational materials science applications. The implementation is valuable for researchers and AI assistants working with materials discovery, property prediction, and crystallographic analysis where programmatic access to the Materials Project's extensive database of calculated material properties is needed.
