Efficient synthesis recipes are needed both to streamline the manufacturing of complex materials and to accelerate the realization of theoretically predicted materials. Oftentimes the solid-state synthesis of multicomponent oxides is impeded by undesired byproduct phases, which can kinetically trap...
