Generally, this requires repeated first-principles energy calculations, which is often impractical for large crystalline systems. Here, we present significant progress toward solving the crystal structure prediction problem: we performed noniterative, single-shot screening using a large library of virtually created crystal structures with a machine-learning energy predictor. This shotgun method (ShotgunCSP) has two key technical components: transfer learning for accurate energy prediction of pre-relaxed crystalline states, and two generative models based on element substitution and symmetry-restricted structure generation to produce promising and diverse crystal structures. First-principles calculations were performed only to generate the training samples and to refine a few selected pre-relaxed crystal structures. The ShotunCSP method is less computationally intensive than conventional methods and exhibits exceptional prediction accuracy, reaching 93.3% in benchmark tests with 90 different crystal structures.","PeriodicalId":19342,"journal":{"name":"npj Computational Materials","volume":"264 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The success of these functionals relies on capturing the effects of electronic screening through scalar, orbital-dependent parameters. These parameters have to be computed for every calculation, making Koopmans spectral functionals more expensive than their DFT counterparts. In this work, we present a machine-learning model that—with minimal training—can predict these screening parameters directly from orbital densities calculated at the DFT level. We show in two prototypical use cases that using the screening parameters predicted by this model, instead of those calculated from linear response, leads to orbital energies that differ by less than 20 meV on average. Since this approach dramatically reduces run times with minimal loss of accuracy, it will enable the application of Koopmans spectral functionals to classes of problems that previously would have been prohibitively expensive, such as the prediction of temperature-dependent spectral properties. More broadly, this work demonstrates that measuring violations of piecewise linearity (i.e., curvature in total energies with respect to occupancies) can be done efficiently by combining frozen-orbital approximations and machine learning.","PeriodicalId":19342,"journal":{"name":"npj Computational Materials","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent discoveries of high-Tc superconductivity in binary hydrides H3S and LaH10 at high pressures have focused the search for room-temperature superconductors on dense hydrides with conventional phonon-mediated pairing mechanisms. In this study, we predict a novel family of superconducting ternary hydrides under moderate compression, XC2H8 (X = Ga, In, Tl, Sn, Pb, Sb, Bi, Te, Po). Unlike H3S and LaH10, these new materials are stable at just around 20 GPa. Among the analyzed compounds, SbC2H8 exhibits the highest critical temperature of 73 K at a pressure of 100 GPa, which is attributed to its energetically favorable high-symmetry crystal structure ((Fm{bar{3}}m)), high density of states at the Fermi level (1.27 states/eV) and strong electron–phonon coupling constant (1.02). We expect that our findings provide crucial insights into achieving high-temperature superconductivity at moderate pressures and accelerate the progress of experimental research.","PeriodicalId":19342,"journal":{"name":"npj Computational Materials","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we propose and compare two novel reinforcement learning (RL) approaches to inverse inorganic oxide materials design to target promising compounds using specified property and synthesis objectives. Our models successfully learn chemical guidelines such as negative formation energy, charge neutrality, and electronegativity balance while maintaining high chemical diversity and uniqueness. We demonstrate multi-objective RL algorithms that can generate novel compounds with both desirable materials properties (band gap, formation energy, bulk modulus, shear modulus) and synthesis objectives (low sintering and calcination temperatures). We apply template-based crystal structure prediction to suggest feasible crystal structure matches for target inorganic compositions identified by our machine learning (ML) algorithms to highlight the plausibility of the identified target compositions. We analyze the benefits and drawbacks of the ML approaches tested in this work in the context of accelerated inorganic materials design.

Using constrained random phase approximation calculations, we derived screened Coulomb interaction parameters and revealed a competition between localization and screening effects, which results in nonmonotonic behavior with d-orbital occupation. We highlight the significant role and nonlocality of inter-site Coulomb interactions, V, comparable in magnitude to the local interaction, U. Our DFT + U + V results exemplarily show the representative band renormalization, and deviations from ideal extended Hubbard models due to increased hybridization between transition metal d and oxygen p orbitals as occupation increases.

Here, using first-principles simulations, we report a new (P{2}_{1}) phase in a Si-compatible CeO2/HfO2 superlattice that exhibits remarkably robust hybrid improper ferroelectricity, induced by the in-plane oxygen rotations of two antiferrodistortive distortion modes. These non-polar distortions are coupled with a polar distortion through a trilinear coupling in the superlattice, stabilizing ferroelectricity as the competing ground state with the assistance of epitaxial strain. The estimated out-of-plane polarization ((P=30.3,mu C/c{m}^{2})) is switchable with a remarkably small energy barrier of 8.5 meV/atom and relatively smaller coercive field relative to bulk HfO2, expected to reduce the operational voltage of ferroelectric devices.
