Classification of octet AB-type binary compounds using dynamical charges: A materials informatics perspective.

ABSTRACT: The role of dynamical (or Born effective) charges in classification of octet AB-type binary compounds between four-fold (zincblende/wurtzite crystal structures) and six-fold (rocksalt crystal structure) coordinated systems is discussed. We show that the difference in the dynamical charges of the fourfold and sixfold coordinated structures, in combination with Harrison's polarity, serves as an excellent feature to classify the coordination of 82 sp-bonded binary octet compounds. We use a support vector machine classifier to estimate the average classification accuracy and the associated variance in our model where a decision boundary is learned in a supervised manner. Finally, we compare the out-of-sample classification accuracy achieved by our feature pair with those reported previously.

Synergy of Binary Substitutions for Improving the Cycle Performance in LiNiO<sub>2</sub> Revealed by Ab Initio Materials Informatics.

Project description:We explore LiNiO2-based cathode materials with two-element substitutions by an ab initio simulation-based materials informatics (AIMI) approach. According to our previous study, a higher cycle performance strongly correlates with less structural change during the charge-discharge cycles; the latter can be used for evaluating the former. However, if we target the full substitution space, full simulations are infeasible even for all binary combinations. To circumvent such an exhaustive search, we rely on Bayesian optimization. Actually, by searching only 4% of all of the combinations, our AIMI approach discovered two promising combinations, Cr-Mg and Cr-Re, whereas each atom itself never improved the performance. We conclude that the synergy never emerges from a common strategy restricted to combinations of "good" elements that individually improve the performance. In addition, we propose a guideline for the binary substitutions by elucidating the mechanism of the crystal structure change.

An informatics guided classification of miscible and immiscible binary alloy systems.

Project description:The classification of miscible and immiscible systems of binary alloys plays a critical role in the design of multicomponent alloys. By mining data from hundreds of experimental phase diagrams, and thousands of thermodynamic data sets from experiments and high-throughput first-principles (HTFP) calculations, we have obtained a comprehensive classification of alloying behavior for 813 binary alloy systems consisting of transition and lanthanide metals. Among several physics-based descriptors, the slightly modified Pettifor chemical scale provides a unique two-dimensional map that divides the miscible and immiscible systems into distinctly clustered regions. Based on an artificial neural network algorithm and elemental similarity, the miscibility of the unknown systems is further predicted and a complete miscibility map is thus obtained. Impressively, the classification by the miscibility map yields a robust validation on the capability of the well-known Miedema's theory (95% agreement) and shows good agreement with the HTFP method (90% agreement). Our results demonstrate that a state-of-the-art physics-guided data mining can provide an efficient pathway for knowledge discovery in the next generation of materials design.

Search for high-capacity oxygen storage materials by materials informatics.

Project description:Oxygen storage materials (OSMs), such as pyrochlore type CeO2-ZrO2 (p-CZ), are used as a catalyst support for three-way catalysts in automotive emission control systems. They have oxygen storage capacity (OSC), which is the ability to release and store oxygen reversibly by the fluctuation of cation oxidation states depending on the reducing or oxidizing atmosphere. In this study, we explore high-capacity OSMs by using materials informatics (MI) combining experiments, first-principles calculations, and machine learning (ML). To generate training data for the ML model, the OSC values of 60 metal oxides were measured from the amount of CO2 produced under alternating flow gas between oxidizing (O2) and reducing (CO) conditions at 973, 773, and 573 K. Descriptors were computed by atomic properties and first-principles calculations on each oxide. The support vector machine regression model was trained to predict the OSC at each temperature. The features describing OSC were automatically selected using grid search to achieve practical cross validation performance. The features related to the stability of the oxygen atoms in the crystal and the crystal structure itself such as cohesive energy are highly correlated with OSC. The present model predicts the OSC of 1300 existing oxides. Based on its high predictive power for OSC and synthesizability, we focused on Cu3Nb2O8. We synthesized this material and experimentally confirmed that Cu3Nb2O8 showed a higher OSC than conventional OSM p-CZ. This MI scheme can significantly accelerate the development of new OSMs.

Materials informatics approach to understand aluminum alloys.

Project description:The relations between the mechanical properties, heat treatment, and compositions of elements in aluminum alloys are extracted by a materials informatics technique. In our strategy, a machine learning model is first trained by a prepared database to predict the properties of materials. The dependence of the predicted properties on explanatory variables, that is, the type of heat treatment and element composition, is searched using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method. From the dependencies, a factor to obtain the desired properties is investigated. Using targets of 5000, 6000, and 7000 series aluminum alloys, we extracted relations that are difficult to find via simple correlation analysis. Our method is also used to design an experimental plan to optimize the materials properties while promoting the understanding of target materials.

Anomalous interfacial dynamics of single proton charges in binary aqueous solutions.

Project description:Our understanding of the dynamics of charge transfer between solid surfaces and liquid electrolytes has been hampered by the difficulties in obtaining interface, charge, and solvent-specific information at both high spatial and temporal resolution. Here, we measure at the single charge scale the dynamics of protons at the interface between an hBN crystal and binary mixtures of water and organic amphiphilic solvents (alcohols and acetone), evidencing a marked influence of solvation on interfacial dynamics. Applying single-molecule localization microscopy to emissive crystal defects, we observe correlated activation between adjacent ionizable surface defects, mediated by the transport of single excess protons along the solid/liquid interface. Solvent content has a nontrivial effect on interfacial dynamics, leading at intermediate water fraction to an increased surface diffusivity, as well as an increased affinity of the proton charges to the solid surface. Our measurements evidence the notable role of solvation on interfacial proton charge transport.

Generative Models for Extrapolation Prediction in Materials Informatics.

Project description:We report a deep generative model for regression tasks in materials informatics. The model is introduced as a component of a data imputer and predicts more than 20 diverse experimental properties of organic molecules. The imputer is designed to predict material properties by "imagining" the missing data in the database, enabling the use of incomplete material data. Even removing 60% of the data does not diminish the prediction accuracy in a model task. Moreover, the model excels at extrapolation prediction, where target values of the test data are out of the range of the training data. Such an extrapolation has been regarded as an essential technique for exploring novel materials but has hardly been studied to date due to its difficulty. We demonstrate that the prediction performance can be improved by >30% by using the imputer compared with traditional linear regression and boosting models. The benefit becomes especially pronounced with few records for an experimental property (<100 cases) when prediction would be difficult by conventional methods. The presented approach can be used to more efficiently explore functional materials and break through previous performance limits.

Designing High-Refractive Index Polymers Using Materials Informatics.

Project description:A machine learning strategy is presented for the rapid discovery of new polymeric materials satisfying multiple desirable properties. Of particular interest is the design of high refractive index polymers. Our in silico approach employs a series of quantitative structure⁻property relationship models that facilitate rapid virtual screening of polymers based on relevant properties such as the refractive index, glass transition and thermal decomposition temperatures, and solubility in standard solvents. Exploration of the chemical space is carried out using an evolutionary algorithm that assembles synthetically tractable monomers from a database of existing fragments. Selected monomer structures that were further evaluated using density functional theory calculations agree well with model predictions.

Gravitational instabilities in binary granular materials.

Project description:The motion and mixing of granular media are observed in several contexts in nature, often displaying striking similarities to liquids. Granular dynamics occur in geological phenomena and also enable technologies ranging from pharmaceuticals production to carbon capture. Here, we report the discovery of a family of gravitational instabilities in granular particle mixtures subject to vertical vibration and upward gas flow, including a Rayleigh-Taylor (RT)-like instability in which lighter grains rise through heavier grains in the form of "fingers" and "granular bubbles." We demonstrate that this RT-like instability arises due to a competition between upward drag force increased locally by gas channeling and downward contact forces, and thus the physical mechanism is entirely different from that found in liquids. This gas channeling mechanism also generates other gravitational instabilities: the rise of a granular bubble which leaves a trail of particles behind it and the cascading branching of a descending granular droplet. These instabilities suggest opportunities for patterning within granular mixtures.

Practical application of quantum neural network to materials informatics.

Project description:Quantum neural network (QNN) models have received increasing attention owing to their strong expressibility and resistance to overfitting. It is particularly useful when the size of the training data is small, making it a good fit for materials informatics (MI) problems. However, there are only a few examples of the application of QNN to multivariate regression models, and little is known about how these models are constructed. This study aims to construct a QNN model to predict the melting points of metal oxides as an example of a multivariate regression task for the MI problem. Different architectures (encoding methods and entangler arrangements) are explored to create an effective QNN model. Shallow-depth ansatzs could achieve sufficient expressibility using sufficiently entangled circuits. The "linear" entangler was adequate for providing the necessary entanglement. The expressibility of the QNN model could be further improved by increasing the circuit width. The generalization performance could also be improved, outperforming the classical NN model. No overfitting was observed in the QNN models with a well-designed encoder. These findings suggest that QNN can be a useful tool for MI.

Contact Lens Materials: A Materials Science Perspective.

Project description:More is demanded from ophthalmic treatments using contact lenses, which are currently used by over 125 million people around the world. Improving the material of contact lenses (CLs) is a now rapidly evolving discipline. These materials are developing alongside the advances made in related biomaterials for applications such as drug delivery. Contact lens materials are typically based on polymer- or silicone-hydrogel, with additional manufacturing technologies employed to produce the final lens. These processes are simply not enough to meet the increasing demands from CLs and the ever-increasing number of contact lens (CL) users. This review provides an advanced perspective on contact lens materials, with an emphasis on materials science employed in developing new CLs. The future trends for CL materials are to graft, incapsulate, or modify the classic CL material structure to provide new or improved functionality. In this paper, we discuss some of the fundamental material properties, present an outlook from related emerging biomaterials, and provide viewpoints of precision manufacturing in CL development.
