- the generating unit 13 executes a process of generating (obtaining) a multi-element phase diagram showing the target compound based on the acquired first information and second information. For example, the generating unit 13 calculates a thermodynamic convex hull energy from the composition of the compound included in the second information and its formation energy, and searches for a thermodynamically stable compound based on the calculated thermodynamic convex hull energy, thereby generating a multi-element phase diagram showing the target compound. For example, when the composition of the target compound is CuInSe2 , the thermodynamic convex hull energy is expressed by the following formula.

If the number of compounds included in the generated phase diagram is equal to or greater than the threshold value (step S108: Yes), the generating unit 13 then executes step S109. On the other hand, if the number of compounds included in the generated phase diagram is less than the threshold value (step S108: No), the generating unit 13 discards the phase diagram and executes step S107 again. In addition, in step S107 again, the generating unit 13 arbitrarily selects two combination candidates after excluding the combination candidates already selected.
