The study main feature is that the primary parameters of the phase field model such as the Burgers vector, the slip system height, and the distance between the dislocation cores are derived from molecular dynamics simulations at different temperatures. These calculations exhibit close alignment with existing theoretical predictions and unlike previous models, lead to a more physical dislocation growth. Due to the generation of dislocation pileup at one grain and consequently, the high stress concentration at the grain boundary, two titled slip systems at <span><math><mrow><mo>±</mo><msup><mrow><mn>30</mn></mrow><mi>o</mi></msup></mrow></math></span> appear in the adjacent grain, along with the amorphization near the grain boundary. Here, the number of dislocations for each slip system is calculated using both the molecular dynamics and phase field methods for different temperatures and under different applied shear stresses and a good agreement between their results is found. As result, the number of dislocations enhances as the temperature or the applied shear increases but not proportionally for all the slip systems. This is evidenced by a reduction in attraction forces and changes in atomic arrangement. The transformation work fields resolved by the phase field method are also compared among three silicon structures. Additionally, a parallel set of slip systems was analyzed, where different dislocations slide over each other, resulting in highly dense pileups along the grain boundary. Out of the three structures that were examined, the ∑19 structure shows the most prominent changes in atomic structure, indicating a higher propensity for such changes in equivalent conditions. The survey also confirms that all the samples under study retain structural stability within the working temperature range of 100 K to 600 K. However, as the temperature exceeds 600 K, the system loses its stability. Also, increasing the applied shear stress shows a higher impact on the ∑19 structure. Consequently, both embedded external shear stress, and working temperature are identified as critical factors influencing the dislocation evolution in silicon bi-crystals.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10650,"journal":{"name":"Computational Materials Science","volume":"254 ","pages":"Article 113893"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143848617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, in this work, we performed a comparative study of the thermal transport properties of <em>h</em>-MN monolayers by integrating the Boltzmann transport equation and the Wigner transport equation with first principles calculations. The results show that the phonons are gradually becoming softer from <em>h</em>-BN to <em>h</em>-InN with a significant phonon frequency gap appearing in <em>h</em>-AlN, <em>h</em>-GaN, and <em>h</em>-InN, which originates from the varied bonding strength and atomic mass. Then, we highlighted that <em>h</em>-InN exhibits an ultra-low thermal conductivity of 8.5–9.4 W/mK at 300 K, which is in sharp contrast to that of <em>h</em>-BN despite their similar planar structures. Meanwhile, with the order from <em>h</em>-BN, <em>h</em>-AlN, <em>h</em>-GaN to <em>h</em>-InN, the contributions of acoustic branches to thermal conductivity significantly decrease, while the contributions of optical branches increase. Further comparative analysis on heat capacities, group velocities, phonon lifetime, and phonon anharmonicity were employed to illuminate the underlying variation mechanism of the thermal conductivity of <em>h</em>-MN monolayers. Last but not least, an electronic level insight was proposed that the unpaired lone-pair valence electrons and significant polarized In-N and Ga-N bonds will lead to their increased phonon anharmonicities and lower thermal conductivities than that of <em>h</em>-BN.

Recently, machine learning and deep learning have revolutionized cheminformatics by offering data-driven approaches that uncover complex patterns in vast chemical datasets, advancing molecular property prediction, chemical reaction modeling, and de novo molecular design. Among the most promising techniques are Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), which have emerged as a powerful tool for modeling molecules in a manner that mirrors their underlying chemical structures. Despite their success, the performance of GNNs is highly sensitive to architectural choices and hyperparameters, making optimal configuration selection a non-trivial task. Neural Architecture Search (NAS) and Hyperparameter Optimization (HPO) are crucial for improving GNN performance, but the complexity and computational cost of these processes have traditionally hindered progress. This review examines various strategies for automating NAS and HPO in GNNs, highlighting their potential to enhance model performance, scalability, and efficiency in key cheminformatics applications.
