Artificial intelligence methods for discovering novel materials and exotic compounds
Artem R. Oganov
Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, 3 Nobel St., 121205 Moscow, Russia
Until mid-2000s it was thought that crystal structures are fundamentally unpredictable. This has changed, and a special role in this was played by our evolutionary method/code USPEX (
uspex-team.org/), which now has over 6100 registered users worldwide. This method can be viewed as a type of artificial intelligence, and routinely allows one to predict stable crystal structures for a given chemical composition], and even to predict all stable compounds formed by given elements. I will discuss some of the most important recent results, including:
1. Discovery of novel chemical phenomena at high pressure: transparent non-metallic allotrope of sodium, counterintuitive novel sodium chlorides, chemical reactivity of helium.
2. Prediction of novel surface compounds, with unexpected similarities to high-pressure compounds.
3. Prediction of new high-temperature superconducting polyhydrides, approaching room-temperature superconductivity.
4. Discovery of novel superhard materials, which have the potential for wide industrial application.
I will also mention some applications of another type of artificial intelligence: machine learning methods, including recent prediction of phase diagrams of metals (including both solid-solid transitions and melting).
