Bonds and local atomic environments are crucial descriptors of material properties. They have been used to create design rules and heuristics and as features in machine learning of materials properties. Implementations and algorithms (e.g., ChemEnv and LobsterEnv) for identifying 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. The lecture will demonstrate how our tools, that assess local atomic environments and perform automatic bonding analysis, help to develop new machine learning models and a new intuitive understanding of materials. Furthermore, the general trend toward automation in density functional-based materials science and some of our recent contributions will be discussed.

Argyrodite-type materials have lately sparked a lot of research interest due to their thermoelectric properties. One promising candidate is canfieldite (Ag8SnS6), which has a Pna21 orthorhombic crystal structure at room temperature (RT). Recently, experimentalists have found a new low-temperature (LT) phase transition of canfieldite at 120K. Therefore, we investigate structural, vibrational and thermodynamic properties of Ag8SnS6 at room- and low-temperature employing density-functional theory (DFT) and lattice dynamics computations. Thermal properties calculations were based on the quasi-harmonic approximation (QHA) as implemented in phonopy. We achieve good agreement with experiments. Lattice parameters were overestimated by 2%, and thermal properties such as the constant-pressure heat capacity Cp are very close to experimental measurements. Our simulations also reveal a possible new phase transition at around 312 K. Furthermore, we compared RT and LT Ag8SnS6 Grüneisen parameters with some argyrodites analogues, Ag8TQ6 (T = Si, Ge, Ti and Sn; Q = S, Se), finding a relationship between the anharmonicity and low thermal conductivity.
Zirconium vanadate (ZrV2O7) is a well-known negative thermal expansion (NTE) material that exhibits significant isotropic contraction over a broad temperature range (~150°C < T < 800°C). Therefore, it can be used to create composites with controllable expansion coefficients and prevent thermal stress, fatigue, cracking, and deformation at interfaces. We implement interdisciplinary research to analyze such material. We study the influence of the synthesis methods and their parameters on the sample's purity, crystallinity, and homogeneity. Moreover, we implement ab initio-based vibrational computations with partially treated anharmonicity in combination with experimental methods to follow temperature-induced structural changes and rationalize the negative thermal expansion in this material, including the influence of the local structure disorder.
Understanding and Machine Learning of Materials Properties with Quantum-Chemical Bonding Analysis
(2023)
Bonds and local atomic environments are crucial descriptors for material properties. They have been used to create design rules for materials and are used as features in machine learning of material properties. This talk will show how our recently developed tools, that automatically perform quantum chemical bond analysis and enable the study of chemical bonds and local atomic environments, accelerate and improve the development of such heuristics and machine-learned models for materials properties.
