High-throughput computations are nowadays an established way to suggest new candidate materials for applications to experimentalists. Due to new packages for automation and access to databases of computed materials properties, these studies became more and more complex over the last years. Besides suggesting new candidate materials for applications, they also offer a way to understanding the materials properties based on chemical bonds. For example, we have recently used orbital-based bonding analysis to understand the results of high-throughput studies for spintronic materials, ferroelectric materials and photovoltaic materials in detail. To do so, we have developed Python tools for high-throughput bonding analysis with the programs VASP and Lobster (see www.cohp.de). They are based on the Python packages pymatgen, atomate, and custodian. This implementation will be discussed within the talk. We also expect that these tools offer possibilities to arrive at new descriptors based on chemical bonds for materials properties.
A deep insight into the chemistry and nature of individual chemical bonds is essential for understanding materials. Bonding analysis is expected to provide important features for large-scale data analysis and machine learning of material properties. Such information on chemical bonds can be calculated using the LOBSTER (www.cohp.de) software package, which post-processes data from modern density functional theory computations by projecting plane wave-based wave functions onto a local atomic orbital basis. We have performed bonding analysis on 1520 compounds (insulators and semiconductors) using a fully automated workflow combining the VASP and LOBSTER software packages. We then automatically evaluated the data with LobsterPy (https://github.com/jageo/lobsterpy) and provide results as a database. The projected densities of states and bonding indicators are benchmarked on VASP projections and available heuristics, respectively. Lastly, we illustrate the predictive power of bonding descriptors by constructing a machine-learning model for phononic properties, which shows an increase in prediction accuracies by 27 % (mean absolute errors) compared to a benchmark model differing only by not relying on any quantum-chemical bonding features.
Chemical bonding and coordination environments are crucial descriptors of material properties. They have previously been applied to creating chemical design guidelines and chemical heuristics. They are currently being used as features in machine learning more and more frequently. I will discuss implementations and algorithms (ChemEnv and LobsterEnv) for identifying these coordination environments based on geometrical characteristics and chemical bond quantum chemical analysis. I will demonstrate how these techniques helped in testing chemical heuristics like the Pauling rule and thereby improved our understanding of chemistry. I will also show how these tools can be used to create new design guidelines and a new understanding of chemistry. To use quantum-chemical bonding analysis on a large-scale and for machine-learning approaches, fully automatic workflows and analysis tools have been developed. After presenting the capabilities of these tools, I will also point out how these developments relate to the general trend towards automation in the field of density functional based materials science.
Bonds and local atomic environments are crucial descriptors of material properties. They have been used to create design rules and heuristics for materials. More and more frequently, they are used as features in machine learning. Implementations and algorithms (e.g., ChemEnv and LobsterEnv) for identifying these local atomic environments based on geometrical characteristics and quantum-chemical bonding analysis are nowadays available. Fully automatic workflows and analysis tools have been developed to use quantum-chemical bonding analysis on a large scale and for machine-learning approaches. The latter relates to a general trend toward automation in density functional-based materials science. The lecture will demonstrate how our tools, that assess local atomic environments, helped to test and develop heuristics and design rules and an intuitive understanding of materials.
Python Materials Genomics (pymatgen) is a robust materials analysis code that defines classes for structures and molecules with support for many electronic structure codes. This open-source software package powers the Materials Project.
In this particular contribution, the handling of obital-resolved "ICOHPLIST.lobster" files from Lobster was implemented in the software package (github handle: @JaGeo).
Chemical heuristics are essential to understanding molecules and materials in chemistry. The periodic table, atomic radii, and electronegativities are only a few examples. Initially, they have been developed by a combination of physical insight and a limited amount of data. It is now possible to test these heuristics and generate new ones using automation based on Materials Informatic tools like pymatgen and greater amounts of data from databases such as a Materials Project. In this session, I'll speak about heuristics and design rules based on coordination environments and the concept of chemical bonding. For example, we have tested the Pauling rules which describe the stability of materials based on coordination environments and their connections on 5000 oxides from the Materials Project. In addition, we have created automated processes for analyzing the chemical bonding situation in crystalline materials with Lobster (www.cohp.de) in order to discover new heuristics and design rules.
