A materials informatics driven fine-tuning of triazine-based electron-transport layer for organic light-emitting devices. Sci Rep 2024; 14:4336. [PMID: 38383699 PMCID: PMC10881559 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-54473-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Materials informatics in the development of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) related materials have been performed and exhibited the effectiveness for finding promising compounds with a desired property. However, the molecular structure optimization of the promising compounds through the conventional approach, namely the fine-tuning of molecules, still involves a significant amount of trial and error. This is because it is challenging to endow a single molecule with all the properties required for practical applications. The present work focused on fine-tuning triazine-based electron-transport materials using machine learning (ML) techniques. The prediction models based on localized datasets containing only triazine derivatives showed high prediction accuracy. The descriptors from density functional theory calculations enhanced the prediction of the glass transition temperature. The proposed multistep virtual screening approach extracted the promising triazine derivatives with the coexistence of higher electron mobility and glass transition temperature. Nine selected triazine compounds from 3,670,000 of the initial search space were synthesized and used as the electron transport layer for practical OLED devices. Their observed properties matched the predicted properties, and they enhanced the current efficiency and lifetime of the device. This paper provides a successful model for the ML assisted fine-tuning that effectively accelerates the development of practical materials.

Abstract
This paper summarizes the vast body of literature (over 200 documents) related to vitrification of the low-activity waste (LAW) fraction of the Hanford tank wastes. Details are provided on the origins of the Hanford tank wastes that resulted from nuclear operations conducted between 1944 and 1989 to support nuclear weapons production. Waste treatment processes are described, including the baseline process to separate the tank waste into LAW and high-level waste fractions, and the LAW vitrification facility being started at Hanford. Significant focus is placed on the glass composition development and the property-composition relationships for Hanford LAW glasses. Glass disposal plans and criteria for minimizing long-term environmental impacts are discussed along with research perspectives.

Zero-carbon energy and negative emission technologies are crucial for achieving a carbon neutral future, and nanomaterials have played critical roles in advancing such technologies. More recently, due to the explosive growth in data, the adoption and exploitation of artificial intelligence (AI) as part of the materials research framework have had a tremendous impact on the development of nanomaterials. AI has enabled revolutionary next-generation paradigms to significantly accelerate all stages of material discovery and facilitate the exploration of the enormous design space. In this review, we summarize recent advancements of AI applications in nanomaterials discovery, with a special emphasis on the selected applications of AI and nanotechnology for the net-zero emission future including the development of solar cells, hydrogen energy, battery materials for renewable energy, and CO2 capture and conversion materials for carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies. In addition, we discuss the limitations and challenges of current AI applications in this area by identifying the gaps that exist in current development. Finally, we present the prospect for future research directions in order to facilitate the large-scale applications of artificial intelligence for advancements in nanomaterials.

Abstract
Abstract
Machine learning and artificial intelligence are increasingly gaining in prominence through image analysis, language processing, and automation, to name a few applications. Machine learning is also making profound changes in chemistry. From revisiting decades-old analytical techniques for the purpose of creating better calibration curves, to assisting and accelerating traditional in silico simulations, to automating entire scientific workflows, to being used as an approach to deduce underlying physics of unexplained chemical phenomena, machine learning and artificial intelligence are reshaping chemistry, accelerating scientific discovery, and yielding new insights. This review provides an overview of machine learning and artificial intelligence from a chemist’s perspective and focuses on a number of examples of the use of these approaches in computational chemistry and in the laboratory.

Abstract
Materials exhibiting higher mobility than conventional organic semiconducting materials, such as fullerenes and fused thiophenes, are in high demand for applications in printed electronics. To discover new molecules that might show improved charge mobility, the adaptive design of experiments (DoE) to design molecules with low reorganization energy was performed by combining density functional theory (DFT) methods and machine learning techniques. DFT-calculated values of 165 molecules were used as an initial training dataset for a Gaussian process regression (GPR) model, and five rounds of molecular designs applying the GPR model and validation via DFT calculations were executed. As a result, new molecules whose reorganization energy is smaller than the lowest value in the initial training dataset were successfully discovered.

Abstract
Materials exhibiting higher mobilities than conventional organic semiconducting materials such as fullerenes and fused thiophenes are in high demand for applications in printed electronics. To discover new molecules in the heteroacene family that might show improved hole mobility, three de novo design methods were applied. Machine learning (ML) models were generated based on previously calculated hole reorganization energies of a quarter million examples of heteroacenes, where the energies were calculated by applying density functional theory (DFT) and a massive cloud computing environment. The three generative methods applied were (1) the continuous space method, where molecular structures are converted into continuous variables by applying the variational autoencoder/decoder technique; (2) the method based on reinforcement learning of SMILES strings (the REINVENT method); and (3) the junction tree variational autoencoder method that directly generates molecular graphs. Among the three methods, the second and third methods succeeded in obtaining chemical structures whose DFT-calculated hole reorganization energy was lower than the lowest energy in the training dataset. This suggests that an extrapolative materials design protocol can be developed by applying generative modeling to a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) utility function.

Abstract
Herein, we review aspects of leading-edge research and innovation in materials science that exploit big data and machine learning (ML), two computer science concepts that combine to yield computational intelligence. ML can accelerate the solution of intricate chemical problems and even solve problems that otherwise would not be tractable. However, the potential benefits of ML come at the cost of big data production; that is, the algorithms demand large volumes of data of various natures and from different sources, from material properties to sensor data. In the survey, we propose a roadmap for future developments with emphasis on computer-aided discovery of new materials and analysis of chemical sensing compounds, both prominent research fields for ML in the context of materials science. In addition to providing an overview of recent advances, we elaborate upon the conceptual and practical limitations of big data and ML applied to materials science, outlining processes, discussing pitfalls, and reviewing cases of success and failure.
