Abstract
In the post-Moore's law era, the progress of electronics relies on discovering superior semiconductor materials and optimizing device fabrication. Computational methods, augmented by emerging data-driven strategies, offer a promising alternative to the traditional trial-and-error approach. In this Perspective, we highlight data-driven computational frameworks for enhancing semiconductor discovery and device development by elaborating on their advances in exploring the materials design space, predicting semiconductor properties and optimizing device fabrication, with a concluding discussion on the challenges and opportunities in these areas.

Abstract
We present a formulation of spin-conserving and spin-flip hybrid time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), including the calculation of analytical forces, which allows for efficient calculations of excited state properties of solid-state systems with hundreds to thousands of atoms. We discuss an implementation on both GPU- and CPU-based architectures along with several acceleration techniques. We then apply our formulation to the study of several point defects in semiconductors and insulators, specifically the negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy and neutral silicon-vacancy centers in diamond, the neutral divacancy center in 4H silicon carbide, and the neutral oxygen-vacancy center in magnesium oxide. Our results highlight the importance of taking into account structural relaxations in excited states in order to interpret and predict optical absorption and emission mechanisms in spin defects.

Abstract
A data-driven approach to simulate circular dichroism (CD) spectra is appealing for fast protein secondary structure determination, yet the challenge of predicting electric and magnetic transition dipole moments poses a substantial barrier for the goal. To address this problem, we designed a new machine learning (ML) protocol in which ordinary pure geometry-based descriptors are replaced with alternative embedded density descriptors and electric and magnetic transition dipole moments are successfully predicted with an accuracy comparable to first-principle calculation. The ML model is able to not only simulate protein CD spectra nearly 4 orders of magnitude faster than conventional first-principle simulation but also obtain CD spectra in good agreement with experiments. Finally, we predicted a series of CD spectra of the Trp-cage protein associated with continuous changes of protein configuration along its folding path, showing the potential of our ML model for supporting real-time CD spectroscopy study of protein dynamics.
