2. Interpolation Distance Analysis

The four highest φox compounds with low-Eg and high-Eg, respectively are Ag2Te, Ag2Se, PbSe, and PbTe; and AgBr, TiO2, AgCl, and CuCl, ordered by their total interpolation distance. These eight account for nearly 70% of interpolation distance. SnO2, Cu2S, and PbS also make significant, albeit lesser contributions to interpolation.

3. Miscellaneous Additional Candidate Compound Data

4. Price Calculation

We estimated a price (USD/kg) for final structures in Table III by performing a weighted sum of component elements prices. The component elements prices were weighted by fractional composition of the final structures. These elemental prices were found in technical reports.27–31
