In this work, we develop a gradient-boosted decision tree (XGBoost) model to predict Tm for complex alloys based on elemental properties. To ensure physical consistency, we address the issue of data leakage by excluding temperature-dependent thermodynamic descriptors (such as Gibbs free energy of mixing) and instead rely on physically motivated elemental features. The optimized model achieves a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.948 and a Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 9928 which is about 5% relative error for HEAs on a validation set of approximately 1300 compositions. Crucially, we validate the model using the Valence Electron Concentration (VEC) rule. Without explicit constraints during training, the model successfully captures the known stability transition between BCC and FCC phases at a VEC of approximately 6.87. These results demonstrate that data-driven models, when properly feature-engineered, can capture fundamental metallurgical principles for rapid alloy screening.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.03801v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Material exploration through active learning -- METALhttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.03933arXiv:2601.03933v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The discovery and design of new materials are paramount in the development of green technologies. High entropy oxides represent one such group that has only been tentatively explored, mainly due to the inherent problem of navigating vast compositional spaces. Thanks to the emergence of machine learning, however, suitable tools are now readily available. Here, the task of finding oxygen carriers for chemical looping processes has been tackled by leveraging active learning-based strategies combined with first-principles calculations. High efficiency and efficacy have, moreover, been achieved by exploiting the power of recently developed machine learning interatomic potentials. Firstly, the proposed approaches were validated based on an established computational framework for identifying high entropy perovskites that can be used in chemical looping air separation and dry reforming. Chief among the insights thus gained was the identification of the best performing strategies, in the form of greedy or Thompson-based sampling based on uncertainty estimates obtained from Gaussian processes. Building on this newfound knowledge, the concept was applied to a more complex problem, namely the discovery of high entropy oxygen carriers for chemical looping oxygen uncoupling. This resulted in both qualitative as well as quantitative outcomes, including lists of specific materials with high oxygen transfer capacities and configurational entropies. Specifically, the best candidates were based on the known oxygen carrier CaMnO3 but also contained a variety of additional species, of which some, e.g., Ti; Co; Cu; and Ti, were expected while others were not, e.g., Y and Sm. The results suggest that adopting active learning approaches is critical in materials discovery, given that these methods are already shifting research practice and soon will be the norm.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.03933v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Transport properties in a model of confined granular mixtures at moderate densitieshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.04026arXiv:2601.04026v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work derives the Navier--Stokes hydrodynamic equations for a model of a confined, quasi-two-dimensional, $s$-component mixture of inelastic, smooth, hard spheres. Using the inelastic version of the revised Enskog theory, macroscopic balance equations for mass, momentum, and energy are obtained, and constitutive equations for the fluxes are determined through a first-order Chapman--Enskog expansion. As for elastic collisions, the transport coefficients are given in terms of the solutions of a set of coupled linear integral equations. Approximate solutions to these equations for diffusion transport coefficients and shear viscosity are achieved by assuming steady-state conditions and considering leading terms in a Sonine polynomial expansion. These transport coefficients are expressed in terms of the coefficients of restitution, concentration, the masses and diameters of the mixture's components, and the system's density. The results apply to moderate densities and are not limited to particular values of the coefficients of restitution, concentration, mass, and/or diameter ratios. As an application, the thermal diffusion factor is evaluated to analyze segregation driven by temperature gradients and gravity, providing criteria that distinguish whether larger particles accumulate near the hotter or colder boundaries.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.04026v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] libMobility: A Python library for hydrodynamics at the Smoluchowski levelhttps://arxiv.org/abs/2510.02135arXiv:2510.02135v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Effective hydrodynamic modeling is crucial for accurately predicting fluid-particle interactions in diverse fields such as biophysics and materials science. Developing and implementing hydrodynamic algorithms is challenging due to the complexity of fluid dynamics, necessitating efficient management of large-scale computations and sophisticated boundary conditions. Furthermore, adapting these algorithms for use on massively parallel architectures like GPUs adds an additional layer of complexity. This paper presents the libMobility software library, which offers a suite of CUDA-enabled solvers for simulating hydrodynamic interactions in particulate systems at the Rotne-Prager-Yamakawa (RPY) level. The library facilitates precise simulations of particle displacements influenced by external forces and torques, including both the deterministic and stochastic components. Notable features of libMobility include its ability to handle linear and angular displacements, thermal fluctuations, and various domain geometries effectively. With an interface in Python, libMobility provides comprehensive tools for researchers in computational fluid dynamics and related fields to simulate particle mobility efficiently. This article details the technical architecture, functionality, and wide-ranging applications of libMobility. libMobility is available at https://github.com/stochasticHydroTools/libMobility.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2510.02135v2[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Kinetic Flux Equations for Ion Exchange in Silicate Glasseshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.03207arXiv:2601.03207v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Ion exchange kinetic flux equations have been extensively investigated since the mid-twentieth century and continue to provide a fundamental framework for describing mass transport phenomena in solid materials. Despite the maturity of this field, inconsistencies remain in the literature concerning the definition, dimensional consistency, and physical interpretation of the parameters involved. A rigorous and unified treatment of these equations is therefore essential to ensure the reproducibility and comparability of theoretical and experimental studies. The present study aims to establish a coherent and systematic development of ion exchange kinetic flux equations, with particular emphasis on the consistent definition and dimensional formulation of the relevant physical quantities. Beyond refining the theoretical foundations, this study extends the classical formulation by incorporating the influence of mechanical stress on ion transport and considering cross-term interactions within the framework of linear irreversible thermodynamics. These developments provide a more comprehensive description of ion exchange kinetics, particularly as applied to silicate glasses, where coupling between chemical and mechanical effects plays a crucial role in determining transport behavior and performance.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.03207v2[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Agentic Exploration of Physics Modelshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2509.24978arXiv:2509.24978v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The process of scientific discovery relies on an interplay of observations, analysis, and hypothesis generation. Machine learning is increasingly being adopted to address individual aspects of this process. However, it remains an open challenge to fully automate the heuristic, iterative loop required to discover the laws of an unknown system by exploring it through experiments and analysis, without tailoring the approach to the specifics of a given task. Here, we introduce SciExplorer, an agent that leverages large language model tool-use capabilities to enable exploration of systems without any domain-specific blueprints, and apply it to physical systems that are initially unknown to the agent. We test SciExplorer on a broad set of models spanning mechanical dynamical systems, wave evolution, and quantum many-body physics. Despite using a minimal set of tools, primarily based on code execution, we observe impressive performance on tasks such as recovering equations of motion from observed dynamics and inferring Hamiltonians from expectation values. The demonstrated effectiveness of this setup opens the door towards similar scientific exploration in other domains, without the need for finetuning or task-specific instructions.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2509.24978v4[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Masgent: An AI-assisted Materials Simulation Agenthttps://arxiv.org/abs/2512.23010arXiv:2512.23010v2 Announce Type: replace-cross -Abstract: Density functional theory (DFT) and machine learning potentials (MLPs) are essential for predicting and understanding materials properties, yet preparing, executing, and analyzing these simulations typically requires extensive scripting, multi-step procedures, and significant high-performance computing (HPC) expertise. These challenges hinder reproducibility and slow down discovery. Here, we introduce Masgent, an AI-assisted materials simulation agent that unifies structure manipulation, automated VASP input generation, DFT workflow construction and analysis, fast MLP-based simulations, and lightweight machine learning (ML) utilities within a single platform. Powered by large language models (LLMs), Masgent enables researchers to perform complex simulation tasks through natural-language interaction, eliminating most manual scripting and reducing setup time from hours to seconds. By standardizing protocols and integrating advanced simulation and data-driven tools, Masgent lowers the barrier to performing state-of-the-art computational methodologies, enabling faster hypothesis testing, pre-screening, and exploratory research for both new and experienced practitioners.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2512.23010v2[ChemRxiv] The unique example of approximation of the electronic term of diatomic molecules by Morse potential. HF, DF, TF.https://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-z97tt?rft_dat=source%3DdrssThe Morse approximations M1(r) and M2(r) of the 1Σ+ ground state potential curves of three hydrofluoride isotopologues are analyzed. Qualitative differences between HF and heavy isotopologues were found. The result of the HF approximation is a function mainly described by the characteristics of a simple term. For HF, the anharmonicity M1(r) is lower than for M2(r), ωехе<ωехе' and De>D', therefore the curve M1(r) lies above U(r). The M2(r) model is constructed from the values of ωе and De, using the equation De=ωе2/4ωехе, so that its potential curve lies below U(r). For DF and TF, the anharmonicity of M1(r) is greater than of M2(r), ωехе>ωехе' and De<D', therefore, the curve M1(r) lies below U(r) and is outside its potential well with possible intersections. For DF and TF this results in the emergence of inversion of anharmonicity. The shape of U(r) for all three molecules is well described by the Morse formula, their parameters are close to each other, and the differences between HF and heavy isotopologues are small. The differences between the extrapolated and true De values for HF, DF, TF are 290, -230, -460 cm-1, and the differences between the values of anharmonicities ωехе and ωехе' are -0.51, 0.22, 0.30 cm-1, i.e. within 0.5‒1%. In the plot of the differences δ(r)≡U(r)‒M(r), the curves M2(r) of the three isotopologues are in the upper half-plane. The curve δ(r) M1(r) HF, which has not experienced an inversion, is also located there due to the small differences ∆ωехe and ∆De. It has the Morse potential shape, similar to M2(r), and its amplitude is lower than that for M2(r). For DF and TF, the amplitude of δ(r) for M1(r) is greater than δ(r) for M2(r), and their maxima coincide. Inversion of anharmonicity changes only the model term, therefore, a section of the δ(r) curves distorted by the Herzberg anomaly remains in the negative half-plane, because of the broadening of the U(r) term in the lower part of the potential well. This area occupies about half of its depth.ChemRxivThu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-z97tt?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[ChemRxiv] Machine-Learning-Accelerated Simulations of Vibrational Activation for Controlled Photoisomerization in a Molecular Motorhttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-wlm7r?rft_dat=source%3DdrssThe precise manipulation of photochemical reactions across broad configurational spaces requires sophisticated design of external control fields. Using the photoisomerization of a molecular motor as a prototype, this study integrates enhanced sampling and active learning to construct accurate machine-learned multi-state potential energy surfaces (PESs). By combining active-learning trajectories with enhanced sampling, our approach efficiently covers substantial reaction regions, enabling trajectory propagation extending to tens of picoseconds at a low computational cost within the machine learning framework. Furthermore, local control theory (LCT) is employed to selectively activate specific vibrational motions, leading to accelerated access to reactive regions, enhanced nonadiabatic transitions, and significantly improved selectivity toward the dominant photoproduct. This combined strategy of machine-learning potentials and LCT offers an efficient and generalizable framework for controlling excited-state dynamics in complex systems.ChemRxivThu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-wlm7r?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[RSC - Chem.

Li-Argyrodite (Li6PS5Cl) is a promising SSE with high ionic conductivity, produced using cheap and sustainable precursors, and therefore of interest to both academia and industry. Like many other sulfide-based SSEs, it is however unstable against Li-metal. Using ab-initio and machine-learning methods, we simulate three representative Li-metal/Li-Argyrodite interface models to investigate whether the exact surface termination affects the chemical stability and ion transport capability. We present a systematic approach to create low-energy interfaces by screening 28 low Miller-index surface terminations of Li-argyrodite and coupling them with Li-metal. Custom-made machine-learned interatomic potentials trained on ab-initio data enable the simulation of large interface models with over 2000 atoms for 5 ns. We find that all three interfaces decompose into an amorphous solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer, consisting of Li3P, Li2S and LiCl, which then crystallizes into an antifluorite phase Li2S{1-x-y}P{x}Cl{y}; {x,y = 0.14-0.15}.

These challenges hinder reproducibility and slow down discovery. Here, we introduce Masgent, an AI-assisted materials simulation agent that unifies structure manipulation, automated VASP input generation, DFT workflow construction and analysis, fast MLP-based simulations, and lightweight machine learning (ML) utilities within a single platform. Powered by large language models (LLMs), Masgent enables researchers to perform complex simulation tasks through natural-language interaction, eliminating most manual scripting and reducing setup time from hours to seconds. By standardizing protocols and integrating advanced simulation and data-driven tools, Masgent lowers the barrier to performing state-of-the-art computational methodologies, enabling faster hypothesis testing, pre-screening, and exploratory research for both new and experienced practitioners.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgThu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2512.23010v2[ChemRxiv] The unique example of approximation of the electronic term of diatomic molecules by Morse potential. HF, DF, TF.https://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-z97tt?rft_dat=source%3DdrssThe Morse approximations M1(r) and M2(r) of the 1Σ+ ground state potential curves of three hydrofluoride isotopologues are analyzed. Qualitative differences between HF and heavy isotopologues were found. The result of the HF approximation is a function mainly described by the characteristics of a simple term. For HF, the anharmonicity M1(r) is lower than for M2(r), ωехе<ωехе' and De>D', therefore the curve M1(r) lies above U(r). The M2(r) model is constructed from the values of ωе and De, using the equation De=ωе2/4ωехе, so that its potential curve lies below U(r). For DF and TF, the anharmonicity of M1(r) is greater than of M2(r), ωехе>ωехе' and De<D', therefore, the curve M1(r) lies below U(r) and is outside its potential well with possible intersections. For DF and TF this results in the emergence of inversion of anharmonicity. The shape of U(r) for all three molecules is well described by the Morse formula, their parameters are close to each other, and the differences between HF and heavy isotopologues are small. The differences between the extrapolated and true De values for HF, DF, TF are 290, -230, -460 cm-1, and the differences between the values of anharmonicities ωехе and ωехе' are -0.51, 0.22, 0.30 cm-1, i.e. within 0.5‒1%. In the plot of the differences δ(r)≡U(r)‒M(r), the curves M2(r) of the three isotopologues are in the upper half-plane. The curve δ(r) M1(r) HF, which has not experienced an inversion, is also located there due to the small differences ∆ωехe and ∆De. It has the Morse potential shape, similar to M2(r), and its amplitude is lower than that for M2(r). For DF and TF, the amplitude of δ(r) for M1(r) is greater than δ(r) for M2(r), and their maxima coincide. Inversion of anharmonicity changes only the model term, therefore, a section of the δ(r) curves distorted by the Herzberg anomaly remains in the negative half-plane, because of the broadening of the U(r) term in the lower part of the potential well. This area occupies about half of its depth.ChemRxivThu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-z97tt?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[ChemRxiv] Machine-Learning-Accelerated Simulations of Vibrational Activation for Controlled Photoisomerization in a Molecular Motorhttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-wlm7r?rft_dat=source%3DdrssThe precise manipulation of photochemical reactions across broad configurational spaces requires sophisticated design of external control fields. Using the photoisomerization of a molecular motor as a prototype, this study integrates enhanced sampling and active learning to construct accurate machine-learned multi-state potential energy surfaces (PESs). By combining active-learning trajectories with enhanced sampling, our approach efficiently covers substantial reaction regions, enabling trajectory propagation extending to tens of picoseconds at a low computational cost within the machine learning framework. Furthermore, local control theory (LCT) is employed to selectively activate specific vibrational motions, leading to accelerated access to reactive regions, enhanced nonadiabatic transitions, and significantly improved selectivity toward the dominant photoproduct. This combined strategy of machine-learning potentials and LCT offers an efficient and generalizable framework for controlling excited-state dynamics in complex systems.ChemRxivThu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-wlm7r?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[RSC - Chem.

Li-Argyrodite (Li6PS5Cl) is a promising SSE with high ionic conductivity, produced using cheap and sustainable precursors, and therefore of interest to both academia and industry. Like many other sulfide-based SSEs, it is however unstable against Li-metal. Using ab-initio and machine-learning methods, we simulate three representative Li-metal/Li-Argyrodite interface models to investigate whether the exact surface termination affects the chemical stability and ion transport capability. We present a systematic approach to create low-energy interfaces by screening 28 low Miller-index surface terminations of Li-argyrodite and coupling them with Li-metal. Custom-made machine-learned interatomic potentials trained on ab-initio data enable the simulation of large interface models with over 2000 atoms for 5 ns. We find that all three interfaces decompose into an amorphous solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer, consisting of Li3P, Li2S and LiCl, which then crystallizes into an antifluorite phase Li2S{1-x-y}P{x}Cl{y}; {x,y = 0.14-0.15}. A two orders of magnitude decrease in Li-ion flux shows that the crystalline SEI layer is a sluggish ion conductor, similar to Li2S. While all three interfaces form the same crystalline SEI layer, the exact rates of the decomposition and crystallisation depend on the actual surface composition. These atomic-level insights could potentially be used to control the SEI formation in sulphide-based SSEs and others.ChemRxivThu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-5d9nq-v2?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[Communications Materials] Extracting and reconstructing knowledge in materials science literature using large language modelshttps://www.nature.com/articles/s43246-025-01043-3<p>Communications Materials, Published online: 08 January 2026; <a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s43246-025-01043-3">doi:10.1038/s43246-025-01043-3</a></p>Reconstructing knowledge on synthesis routes and properties from inorganic science literature is crucial yet challenging, particularly in maintaining completeness and logical consistency.

Although deep learning offers a potential methodology to achieve generative inverse design, it is still hindered by the scarcity of high-quality datasets that align nanocrystal synthesis routes with their properties. Here, we present the construction of a large-scale, aligned Nanocrystal Synthesis-Property (NSP) database and demonstrate its capability for generative inverse design. To extract structured synthesis routes and their corresponding product properties from literature, we develop NanoExtractor, a large language model (LLM) enhanced by well-designed augmentation strategies. NanoExtractor is validated against human experts, achieving a weighted average score of 88% on the test set, significantly outperforming chemistry-specialized (3%) and general-purpose LLMs (38%). The resulting NSP database contains nearly 160,000 aligned entries and serves as training data for our NanoDesigner, an LLM for inverse synthesis design. The generative capability of NanoDesigner is validated through the successful design of viable synthesis routes for both well-established PbSe nanocrystals and rarely reported MgF2 nanocrystals. Notably, the model recommends a counter-intuitive, non-stoichiometric precursor ratio (1:1) for MgF2 nanocrystals, which is experimentally confirmed as critical for suppressing byproducts. Our work bridges the gap between unstructured literature and data-driven synthesis, and also establishes a powerful human-AI collaborative paradigm for accelerating nanocrystal discovery.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgWed, 07 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.02424v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Protein-Water Energy Transfer via Anharmonic Low-Frequency Vibrationshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.02699arXiv:2601.02699v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Heat dissipation is ubiquitous in living systems, which constantly convert distinct forms of energy into each other. The transport of thermal energy in liquids and even within proteins is well understood but kinetic energy transfer across a heterogeneous molecular boundary provides additional challenges. Here, we use atomistic molecular dynamics simulations under steady-state conditions to analyze how a protein dissipates surplus thermal energy into the surrounding solvent. We specifically focus on collective degrees of freedom that govern the dynamics of the system from the diffusive regime to mid-infrared frequencies. Using a fully anharmonic analysis of molecular vibrations, we analyzed their vibrational spectra, temperatures, and heat transport efficiencies. We find that the most efficient energy transfer mechanisms are associated with solvent-mediated friction. However, this mechanism only applies to a small number of degrees of freedom of a protein. Instead, less efficient vibrational energy transfer in the far-infrared dominates heat transfer overall due to a large number of vibrations in this frequency range. A notable by-product of this work is a highly sensitive measure of deviations from energy equi-partition in equilibrium systems, which can be used to analyze non-ergodic properties.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgWed, 07 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.02699v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Interplay of Structure and Dynamics in Solid Polymer Electrolytes: a Molecular Dynamics Study of LiPF6/polypropylene carbonatehttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.02869arXiv:2601.02869v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Solid-state batteries (SSB) are emerging as next-generation electrochemical energy storage devices. Achieving high energy density in SSB relies on solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) that are electrochemically stable against both lithium metal and high-potential positive electrodes, two conditions that are difficult to satisfy without chemical degradation. In this work, molecular dynamics simulations are employed to investigate the relationship between structure and dynamics in carbonate-based SPE composed of polypropylene carbonate and lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF$_6$), at salt concentrations ranging from 0.32 to 1.21 mol$/$kg. Structural properties are analyzed under ambient pressure at the experimentally relevant temperature $T = 353$ K. Since the slow dynamical processes governing ion transport in these systems are inaccessible to direct molecular dynamics, transport properties are simulated at elevated temperatures up to 900 K and extrapolated to $T = 353$ K using Arrhenius behavior. The results reveal strong ionic correlations, a limited fraction of free ions, and a predominance of negatively charged clusters, especially at high salt concentration. At high temperature, the self-diffusion coefficient of Li$^+$ exceeds that of PF$_6^-$ due to weaker Li$^+$-carbonate and ion-ion interactions. However, at $T = 353$ K, Li$^+$ mobility becomes lower than that of the anion, consistent with typical experimental observations in SPE. As expected, the ionic conductivity $\sigma$ increases with temperature, while at $T = 353$ K it exhibits a maximum for salt concentrations between 1.0 and 1.1 mol$/$kg. Overall, the estimated physico-chemical parameters highlight the key role of ion correlations in SPE and suggest strategies to optimize electrolyte performance. The Arrhenius extrapolation approach used here provides valuable insight into ion transport mechanisms in solid polymer electrolytes.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgWed, 07 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.02869v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] DeepH-pack: A general-purpose neural network package for deep-learning electronic structure calculationshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.02938arXiv:2601.02938v1 Announce Type: new @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ Abstract: Accurate prediction of radiation damage in YBa$_2$Cu$3$O${7-\delta}$ ( Abstract: We present quantum heat machines using a diatomic molecule modelled by a $q$-deformed potential as a working medium.

By leveraging the vast knowledge encoded during pre-training, prompt engineering—the systematic design and optimization of input instructions—enables researchers to guide LLMs toward accurate and domain-specific outputs without updating model parameters. This review presents the first systematic examination of prompt engineering techniques within organic chemistry, focusing on two critical application areas: text mining and predictive tasks. We analyze the core paradigms of prompt engineering, including prompt design, prompt learning, and prompt tuning, and clarify terminological inconsistencies in the literature. The discussion is contextualized within the three principal LLM architectures (encoder-only, decoder-only, and encoder-decoder), with an evaluation of their respective performances on chemistry-related tasks. Furthermore, we explore practical workflows for extracting structured chemical data from texts and knowledge graphs, as well as advanced prompt strategies for reaction condition prediction, reaction optimization, and catalytic performance prediction. This review highlights the significant potential of LLM-driven prompt engineering to accelerate discovery in organic chemistry, from synthetic pathway optimization to automated literature analysis, while also addressing persistent challenges such as the limitations associated with various prompt engineering techniques and the constraints related to each related sub-task. We conclude by outlining future research directions aimed at deepening the integration of chemical knowledge with evolving AI methodologies.ChemRxivTue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-625v3?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[ChemRxiv] Ensemble Analyzer: An Open-Source Python Framework for Automated Conformer Ensemble Refinementhttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-kq1wk?rft_dat=source%3DdrssAccurate prediction of molecular properties often requires considering the full conformational ensemble rather than a single optimized structure.

In mammals, two subtypes of ferritin exist: heavy (H) chain and light (L) chain. They have very similar 3D structures, but each performs a slightly different role in iron mineral formation. How sequence differences between the two subtypes affect mineral formation within the nanocages is still unclear. Single-particle reconstruction of cryo-TEM images was used to build models of unmineralized and partially mineralized human L-chain and H-chain ferritin, which showed that subtle differences in protein structure led to changes in the location of mineral formation within ferritin. Explicit-solvent atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to explore how sequence-dependent electrostatics modulate ion transport, cluster formation, and mineral nucleation within the confined environment of human L- and H-chain apoferritin nanocages. Employing NaCl as a computational probe, we show that the internal charge distribution governs ion selectivity and nucleation pathways. Analysis of liquid and solid ionic clusters, combined with Markov State Models (MSMs), reveals that mineralization proceeds through a two-step mechanism involving dense liquid-like precursors that crystallize homogeneously within the cavity. These findings provide molecular insight into how ferritin sequence variability tunes confinement-driven nucleation and suggest general principles for designing biomimetic nanoreactors.ChemRxivTue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-8bq1h?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[ChemRxiv] Machine Learning Prediction of Henry Coefficients of Polar and Nonpolar Gases in Covalent Organic Frameworks: Effects of Interlayer Shifts and Functionalizationhttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-ps69l?rft_dat=source%3DdrssCovalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising materials for gas separation and carbon capture. Computational techniques based on Monte Carlo simulation can be used to predict the gas adsorption properties of COFs with high accuracy, however they are too inefficient to be deployed in a high-throughput manner for screening large COF databases. In this paper, we systematically train and evaluate a range of machine learning models for predicting the Henry coefficients for CO2 and CH4 gas adsorption in COF materials. To account for COF structural variability, we train our models on datasets that include both chemically functionalized frameworks and interlayer displaced stacking configurations. By comparing predictive performance across descriptor–model architecture combinations, we demonstrate how different models capture the key physical factors governing gas adsorption, including electrostatics, local atomic environments, and van der Waals interactions. Our results therefore provide a framework for building machine learning models for scalable, high-throughput screening of COF materials with targeted gas adsorption properties.ChemRxivTue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-ps69l?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[ChemRxiv] Bridging the Gap: Aqueous Phase Organic Synthesis as a Foundation for Advanced Chemical and Biological Discoveryhttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-0hw4d?rft_dat=source%3DdrssFor over a century, synthetic chemistry demanded the rigorous exclusion of water, relying on toxic, volatile organic solvents. This paradigm, while successful, is environmentally and economically costly. This review advocates for a fundamental shift: adopting water not just as a green solvent, but as a transformative medium that reshapes our understanding of reactivity and bridges chemistry with biology. Aqueous phase organic synthesis (APOS) has evolved from accidental observations to a deliberate discipline. Water’s unique properties—its high polarity, hydrogen-bonding capacity, and the hydrophobic effect—make it an active participant. This effect drives reactant aggregation and stabilizes transition states, leading to dramatic rate enhancements in pericyclic and condensation reactions. A broad range of reactions thrive in water, including classical carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions like the aldol and Diels–Alder, and modern cross-couplings (e.g., Suzuki–Miyaura) enabled by water-tolerant catalysts. Multicomponent and click chemistries are particularly powerful. Challenges like poor solubility are addressed with micellar catalysis, water-soluble ligands, and precise control of the reaction microenvironment. Beyond sustainability, APOS drives discovery, often yielding improved selectivities, new pathways, and streamlined syntheses of complex targets like pharmaceuticals. Its greatest promise lies in interfacing with biology. Bioorthogonal reactions, such as azide–alkyne cycloadditions, enable labeling and imaging in living organisms. Aqueous compatibility is essential for in situ therapeutic strategies, chemical biology, and advanced bioconjugation techniques for modifying biomolecules. The future converges with emerging technologies: machine learning to navigate complex aqueous systems, flow chemistry for scalability, and the integration of enzymatic with synthetic catalysis. This points toward a unified chemical-biological engineering paradigm. In conclusion, APOS is a mature, versatile field. It is a cornerstone of green chemistry and a critical bridge to biology, accelerating progress in medicine and materials science. Embracing water is both an environmental imperative and a strategic pathway to the next generation of scientific discovery. Introduction: The Solvent Problem in Organic Synthesis -For generations, organic synthesis has been defined by precise control over molecular structure carried out in rigorously dried environments. Since the emergence of modern organic chemistry in the nineteenth century, water – the very medium that sustains life – has been regarded as an obstacle to chemical transformation. This long-standing assumption has shaped laboratory routines, industrial manufacturing, and chemical education, reinforcing the idea that successful synthesis depends on strict exclusion of moisture. This introduction revisits that historical mindset, evaluates its environmental and economic consequences, and presents the case for a fundamental transition toward aqueous phase organic synthesis (APOS) as a more suitable platform for future chemical and biological innovation.ChemRxivTue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2026-0hw4d?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[RSC - Chem.

The orientation and spacing of transition lines in a charge stability diagram (CSD) contain a fingerprint of a QD device's capacitive environment, making these measurements useful tools for device characterization. However, manually interpreting these features is time-consuming, error-prone, and impractical at scale. Here, we present an automated protocol for extracting underlying capacitive properties from CSDs. Our method integrates machine learning, image processing, and object detection to identify and track charge transitions across large datasets without manual labeling. We demonstrate this method using experimentally measured data from a strained-germanium single-quantum-well (planar) and a strained-germanium double-quantum-well (bilayer) QD device. Unlike for planar QD devices, CSDs in bilayer germanium heterostructure exhibit a larger set of transitions, including interlayer tunneling and distinct loading lines for the vertically stacked QDs, making them a powerful testbed for automation methods. By analyzing the properties of many CSDs, we can statistically estimate physically relevant quantities, like relative lever arms and capacitive couplings. Thus, our protocol enables rapid extraction of useful, nontrivial information about QD devices.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgMon, 05 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.00067v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Atomic-Scale Mechanisms of Li-Ion Transport Mediated by Li10GeP2S12 in Composite Solid Polyethylene Oxide Electrolyteshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00112arXiv:2601.00112v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Polymer electrolytes incorporating Li$_{10}$GeP$_{2}$S$_{12}$ (LGPS) nanoparticles show promise for solid-state lithium batteries owing to their enhanced ionic conductivity, though the governing mechanisms remain unclear. We combine molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, experimental ionic conductivity measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to elucidate the effect of LGPS loading on polyethylene oxide (PEO) structure and Li-ion transport. MD and experimental results agree up to 10\% LGPS, showing a volcano-shaped conductivity trend driven by polymer segmental dynamics and interfacial effects. Beyond 10\%, experiments reveal additional conductivity enhancement unexplained by MD, suggesting a distinct transport regime. DFT calculations indicate that Li-ion migration at the PEO|LGPS interface proceeds via vacancy-mediated hopping, with low barriers favored by S-rich interfacial sites and hindered by Ge. These findings link interfacial chemistry and microstructure to Li-ion dynamics, offering guidelines for designing high-performance composite polymer electrolytes.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgMon, 05 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.00112v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Engineering Ideal 2D Type-II Nodal Line Semimetals via Stacking and Intercalation of van der Waals Layershttps://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00407arXiv:2601.00407v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Two-dimensional type-II topological semimetals (TSMs), characterized by strongly tilted Dirac cones, have attracted intense interest for their unconventional electronic properties and exotic transport behaviors. However, rational design remains challenging due to the sensitivity of band tilting to lattice geometry, atomic coordination, and symmetry constraints. Here, we present a bottom-up approach to engineer ideal type-II nodal line semimetals (NLSMs) in van der Waals bilayers via atomic intercalation. Using monolayer $h$-AlN as a prototype, we show that fluorine-intercalated bilayer AlN (F@BL-AlN) hosts a symmetry-protected type-II nodal loop precisely at the Fermi level, enabled by preserved mirror symmetry ($\mathcal{M}_z$) and tailored interlayer hybridization. First-principles calculations reveal that fluorine not only tunes interlayer coupling but also aligns the Fermi energy with the nodal line, stabilizing the type-II NLSM phase. The system exhibits tunable electronic properties under external electric and strain fields and features a van Hove singularity that induces spontaneous ferromagnetism, realizing a ferromagnetic topological semimetal state. This work provides a versatile platform for designing type-II NLSMs and offers practical guidance for their experimental realization.cond-mat updates on arXiv.orgMon, 05 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMToai:arXiv.org:2601.00407v1[cond-mat updates on arXiv.org] Kinetic Turing Instability and Emergent Spectral Scaling in Chiral Active Turbulencehttps://arxiv.org/abs/2508.21012arXiv:2508.21012v5 Announce Type: cross @@ -101,4 +101,4 @@ efficiency.

In this work, the phonon dynamics, carrier transport, and TE performance of the layered SmZnSbO compound are comprehensively evaluated using first-principles calculations, machine learning interatomic potentials, Boltzmann transport theory, and the two-channel model. The coexistence of weak interlayer van der Waals interactions, robust intralayer covalent bonding interactions, and rattling-like vibrations of Zn atoms synergistically induces significant lattice anharmonicity, resulting in a decreased lattice thermal conductivity (0.84 W/mK@900 K within the framework of the two-channel model) for the SmZnSbO compound. The natural quantum well architecture formed by the alternative conductive [Zn<sub>2</sub>Sb<sub>2</sub>]<sup>2−</sup> layer and the insulated [Sm<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> layer endows quasi-two-dimensional transport characteristics, enabling a high carrier mobility of 34.1 cm<sup>2</sup>/Vs. Moreover, the multi-valley electronic band structure with an indirect bandgap of 0.80 eV simultaneously optimizes electrical conductivity (<span style="font-style: italic;">σ</span>) and Seebeck coefficient (<span style="font-style: italic;">S</span>), resulting in an enhanced power factor.

Results indicate that the candidate coatings are thermodynamically stable at 0 K, with superior reduction stability against the lithium metal anode and good chemical compatibility with LLZO.

Routine alcohol-based cleaning can be impractical on high-touch optical surfaces due to damage risk and usability concerns. Here, we present a scalable approach to transparent, mechanically robust glass surfaces by embedding materials with <span style="font-style: italic;">ad hoc</span> functionality into surface glass nanoholes. We demonstrate the concept with copper nanodisks: copper is an established antimicrobial agent, but its wear susceptibility pose challenges for use on transparent displays. Our design shields the functional material from lateral wear while allowing ion diffusion for antimicrobial efficacy. Fabrication uses only wafer-compatible, lithography-free steps: thermal dewetting of a thin silver film to create a nanosized mask; inverting it to a polymer nanoholes mask by etching the silver nanoparticles; wet etching of the glass to form nanoholes; selective copper deposition inside these holes; and liftoff of excess material. The resulting surfaces exhibit mean transmission of 80%–85% in the 380–750 nm range with haze &lt;1% and minimal color shift, compared to uncoated glass. Antimicrobial efficacy, assessed against <span style="font-style: italic;">Escherichia coli</span> OP50 under a modified U.S. EPA protocol, shows ≈99% bacterial reduction within one hour. Abrasion tests with a crockmeter simulating finger swipes confirm that the embedded copper remains intact, with no measurable change in optical performance.

The chemical similarity among these elements makes the development of selective solvent extraction reagents both slow and difficult. Here, we present a quasi-autonomous, AI-enabled workflow for the design and computational screening of selective extractant ligands. Molecular design is guided by SAFE-MolGen, a large language model-based agentic system that leverages curated extraction data to propose new ligands and preliminarily rank their performance using a supervised machine learning model trained on experimental datasets to consider the impact of realistic experimental conditions. Promising human-approved ligands are then passed to a second automated pipeline that constructs three-dimensional metal-ligand complexes and performs quantum mechanical free energy calculations to directly assess metal selectivity. We demonstrate this approach for Am(III)/Eu(III) separations and report several newly designed ligands predicted to exhibit higher Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity than the benchmark extractant CyMe4BTBP.

However, their reported lattice thermal conductivities ( κ) remain highly inconsistent, with experimental values and theoretical predictions differing by more than an order of magnitude. These discrepancies stem from uncertainties in measurement techniques, variations in computational protocols, and ambiguities in the treatment of higher-order anharmonic processes. In this study, we critically review these inconsistencies, first by mapping the spread of experimental and modeling results, and then by identifying the methodological origins of divergence. To this end, we bridge first-principles calculations, molecular dynamics simulations, and state-of-the-art machine learning force fields (MLFFs), including recently developed foundation models. We train and benchmark GAP, MACE, NEP, and HIPHIVE against density functional theory and rigorously evaluate the impact of third- and fourth-order phonon scattering processes on κ. The computational efficiency of MLFFs enables us to extend convergence tests beyond conventional limits and to validate predictions through homogeneous nonequilibrium molecular dynamics as well. Our analysis demonstrates that, contrary to some recent claims, fully converged four-phonon processes contribute negligibly to the intrinsic thermal conductivity of both MoS<sub>2</sub> and MoSe<sub>2</sub>. These findings not only refine the intrinsic transport limits of 2D TMDs but also establish MLFF-based approaches as a robust and scalable framework for predictive modeling of phonon-mediated thermal transport in low-dimensional materials.</span>Applied Physics Reviews Current IssueMon, 22 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/article/12/4/041424/3375425/Thermal-conductivity-limits-of-MoS2-and-MoSe2[iScience] Widely Targeted Metabolomics and Machine Learning Identify Succinate as a Key Metabolite in Sepsis-Associated Encephalopathyhttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02781-6?rss=yesSepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a common and serious complication of sepsis that leads to acute brain dysfunction and long-term cognitive impairment. We used widely targeted LC–MS/MS plasma metabolomics in 29 healthy controls, 32 sepsis patients, and 27 SAE patients, combined with machine learning, to define metabolic patterns across these groups. This approach identified 12 discriminatory metabolites, with succinate showing a stepwise increase from health to sepsis to SAE and associations with clinical severity scores.iScienceMon, 22 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02781-6?rss=yes[Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] Interpreting X-ray Diffraction Patterns of Metal–Organic Frameworks via Generative Artificial Intelligencehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c16416<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/jacs.5c16416/asset/images/medium/ja5c16416_0007.gif" /></p><div><cite>Journal of the American Chemical Society</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/jacs.5c16416</div>Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Sat, 20 Dec 2025 15:03:45 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c16416[Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] A Transformative Molecular Muscle Solid Electrolytehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c18427<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/jacs.5c18427/asset/images/medium/ja5c18427_0006.gif" /></p><div><cite>Journal of the American Chemical Society</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/jacs.5c18427</div>Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Fri, 19 Dec 2025 20:12:03 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c18427[Wiley: Small Structures: Table of Contents] Li6−xFe1−xAlxCl8 Solid Electrolytes for Cost‐Effective All‐Solid‐State LiFePO4 Batterieshttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sstr.202500728?af=RSmall Structures, EarlyView.Wiley: Small Structures: Table of ContentsFri, 19 Dec 2025 18:40:34 GMT10.1002/sstr.202500728[Joule] Boosting ionic conductivity of fluoride electrolytes by polyanion coordination chemistry enabling 5 V-Class all-solid-state batterieshttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00414-3?rss=yesThis study developed a novel class of highly conductive amorphous fluoride solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) LixTi(PO4)x/3F4, using a polyanion coordination strategy. The optimized Li1.3Ti(PO4)1.3/3F4 achieves a Li+ conductivity of 1.16 × 10−5 S cm−1, two orders of magnitude higher than that of analogous Li2TiF6. Combining the inherent high-voltage stability of fluoride and the excellent ionic conductivity of Li1.3Ti(PO4)1.3/3F4, this material enables superior 5 V-class all-solid-state battery performance.

A Cognitive Decomposition of Odor-Evoked Retrievalhttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02728-2?rss=yesA single scent can unlock vivid memories. This study investigates the factors that make some odors more evocative than others. We examined odor-evoked episodic memory in 106 participants who experienced odors embedded in distinct visuospatial contexts, and whose memory was tested 24–72 hours later. The protocol empirically dissociates odor recognition (“I’ve already smelled this scent”) and associative memory (“It evokes a memory”) processes. Using machine learning with SHapley Additive exPlanations, we identified distinct predictors for each process.iScienceTue, 16 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02728-2?rss=yes[iScience] Combining DNA Methylation Features and Clinical Characteristics Predicts Ketamine Treatment Response for PTSDhttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02706-3?rss=yesPost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) exhibits extensive clinical and biological variability, making treatment challenging.

Historically, manual inspections have been plagued by subjectivity, inefficiency, and restricted scalability, necessitating the development of enhanced detection algorithms. This research introduces a novel approach utilizing image processing and machine learning to enhance detection accuracy and practical applicability. This strategy promotes classification stability by integrating machine learning classifiers, including k-Nearest Neighbors, Artificial Neural Networks, Decision Trees, and Linear Discriminant Analysis, with fusion techniques such as Majority Voting and Mean Fusion. The experiments utilize Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation for model evaluation to address dataset variability and deliver thorough assessments. The study’s results indicate that the suggested system surpasses existing systems in accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, attaining an overall accuracy of 98.17%. The method is effective across various noise and resolution parameters, allowing for scalability in precision agriculture applications. This discovery not only enhances the diagnosis of plant nutrient deficiencies but also enables further investigations into real-time plant health monitoring.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046111/3374702/Smart-detection-of-plant-nutrient-deficiencies[RSC - Digital Discovery latest articles] PEMD: a high-throughput simulation and analysis framework for solid polymer electrolyteshttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2026/DD/D5DD00454C<div><p><img align="center" src="http://pubs.rsc.org/services/images/RSCpubs.ePlatform.Service.FreeContent.ImageService.svc/ImageService/image/GA?id=D5DD00454C" /></p></div><div><i><b>Digital Discovery</b></i>, 2026, Advance Article<br /><b>DOI</b>: 10.1039/D5DD00454C, Paper</div><div><img alt="Open Access" src="http://sod-a.rsc-cdn.org/pubs.rsc-uat.org/content/NewImages/open_access_blue.png" /> Open Access</div><div><a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="license" target="_blank" title="This link will open in a new browser window"> <img alt="Creative Commons Licence" border="none" src="http://sod-a.rsc-cdn.org/pubs.rsc-uat.org/content/NewImages/CCBY-NC.png" /></a>&nbsp; This article is licensed under a <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="license" target="_blank" title="This link will open in a new browser window">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported Licence.</a></div><div>Shendong Tan, Bochun Liang, Dexin Lu, Chaoyuan Ji, Wenke Ji, Zihui Li, Tingzheng Hou<br />PEMD is an open-source Python framework that integrates polymer construction, force-field parameterization, multiscale simulation, and property analysis, with standardized workflows for screening and data-driven design of solid polymer electrolytes.<br />To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.<br />The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry</div>RSC - Digital Discovery latest articlesFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2026/DD/D5DD00454C[AI for Science - latest papers] Investigating CO adsorption on Cu(111) and Rh(111) surfaces using machine learning exchange-correlation functionalshttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae21faThe ‘CO adsorption puzzle’, a persistent failure of utilizing generalized gradient approximations in density functional theory to replicate CO’s experimental preference for top-site adsorption on transition-metal surfaces, remains a critical barrier in surface chemistry. While hybrid functionals such as HSE06 partially resolve this discrepancy, their prohibitive computational cost limits broader applications. We tackle this issue by adopting the Deep Kohn–Sham (DeePKS) method to train machine-learned exchange-correlation functionals. Principal component analysis reveals that the input descriptors for electronic structures separate distinctly across different chemical environments, enabling the DeePKS models to generalize to multi-element systems. We train system-specific DeePKS models for transition-metal surfaces Cu(111) and Rh(111). These models successfully recover experimental site preferences, yielding adsorption energy differences of about 10 meV compared to HSE06, and can be applied to study unseen adsorbate coverages. Furthermore, a single model for the two surfaces is trained, and the model achieves comparable accuracy in predicting not only adsorption energies and site preference but also potential energy surfaces and relaxed surface adsorption structures. The work demonstrates a promising path towards universal models, enabling catalyst exploration with hybrid functional accuracy at substantially reduced cost.AI for Science - latest papersFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae21fa[iScience] Consensus machine learning identifies cell death gene signature for carotid artery stenosis diagnosishttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02658-6?rss=yesCarotid artery stenosis (CAS) is a major contributor to ischemic stroke, and molecular tools for its early detection remain limited.

We present the deterministic characterization with an integrated parallelizable hybrid resolver architecture, a hybrid machine learning framework designed for fast, accurate analysis of XFEL diagnostics using angular streaking-based sinogram images. This architecture integrates convolutional neural networks and bidirectional long short-term memory models to denoise input, identify x-ray sub-spike features, and extract sub-spike relative delays with sub-30 attosecond temporal resolution. Deployed on low-latency hardware, it achieves over 10 kHz throughput with 168.3 <span style="font-style: italic;">μ</span>s inference latency, indicating scalability to 14 kHz with field-programmable gate array integration. By transforming regression tasks into classification problems and leveraging optimized error encoding, we achieve high precision with low-latency performance that is critical for real-time streaming event selection and experimental control feedback signals. This represents a key development in real-time control pipelines for next-generation autonomous science, generally, and high repetition-rate x-ray experiments in particular.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 21 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046107/3373060/A-hybrid-neural-architecture-Online-attosecond-x[Joule] Accelerated discovery of CO2-to-C3-hydrocarbon electrocatalysts with human-in-the-loophttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00394-0?rss=yesDespite advances in automation and AI, accelerating discovery in heterogeneous electrocatalysts remains hindered by the experimental challenges of building integrated platforms for synthesis and evaluation, as well as limited performance-relevant data.

We create a database of all two-generated subgroups of the symmetric group on n-objects and conduct a classification of finite simple groups among them using shallow feed-forward neural networks. We show that this neural network classifier can decipher the property of simplicity with varying accuracies depending on the features. Our neural network model leads to a natural conjecture concerning the generators of a finite simple group. We subsequently prove this conjecture. This new toy theorem comments on the necessary properties of generators of finite simple groups. We show this explicitly for a class of sporadic groups for which the result holds. Our work further makes the case for a machine motivated study of algebraic structures in pure mathematics and highlights the possibility of generating new conjectures and theorems in mathematics with the aid of machine learning.AI for Science - latest papersThu, 20 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1d98[Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of Contents] Taguchi–Bayesian Sampling: A Roadmap for Polymer Database Construction Toward Small Representative Machine Learninghttps://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/aidi.202500150?af=RAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of ContentsWed, 19 Nov 2025 05:00:22 GMT10.1002/aidi.202500150[iScience] An explainable machine learning model predicts 30-day readmission after vertebral augmentationhttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02400-9?rss=yesOrthopedics; Machine learningiScienceWed, 19 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02400-9?rss=yes[RSC - Chem.

Specifically, our benchmark tests zero- (molecules, atomic clusters, etc), one- (nanowires, nanoribbons, nanotubes, etc), two- (atomic layers and slabs) and three-dimensional (3D) (bulk materials) compounds. The benchmark reveals that while all tested models demonstrate excellent performance for 3D systems, accuracy degrades progressively for lower-dimensional structures. The best performing models for geometry optimization are orbital version 2, equiformerV2, and the equivariant Smooth Energy Network, with the equivariant Smooth Energy Network also providing the most accurate energies. Our results indicate that the best models yield, on average, errors in the atomic positions in the range of 0.01–0.02 Å and errors in the energy below 10 meV atom−1 across all dimensionalities. These results demonstrate that state-of-the-art universal MLIPs have reached sufficient accuracy to serve as direct replacements for density functional theory calculations, at a small fraction of the computational cost, in simulations spanning the full range from isolated atoms to bulk solids. More significantly, the best performing models already enable efficient simulations of complex systems containing subsystems of mixed dimensionality, opening new possibilities for modeling realistic materials and interfaces.AI for Science - latest papersMon, 17 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1208[Cell Reports Physical Science] Conjugated polyelectrolyte-aptamer hybrid for organic-electrochemical-transistor-based sensinghttps://www.cell.com/cell-reports-physical-science/fulltext/S2666-3864(25)00564-8?rss=yesJiang et al. present biofunctionalized organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs), specifically single-component materials that integrate high specificity with semiconducting properties, exemplified by p(NDI-T-ZI/EG)-aptamer.

However, this process is usually slow and expensive, especially for metallic glasses, whose formation strongly depends on the optimal combinations of multiple elements to resist crystallization. This constraint renders only several thousands of candidates explored in the vast material space since 1960. Recently, data-driven approaches armed by advanced machine learning techniques provided alternative routes for intelligent materials design. Due to data scarcity and immature material encoding, the conventional tabular data is usually mined by statistical learning algorithms, giving limited model predictability and generalizability. Here, we propose sophisticated data learning from material network representations. The node elements are encoded from the Wikipedia by a language model. Graph neural networks with versatile architectures are designed to serve as recommendation systems to explore hidden relationships among materials. By employing Wikipedia embeddings from different languages, we assess the capability of natural languages in materials design.

Despite their remarkable success in predicting bulk properties, no systematic evaluation has assessed how well these universal MLIPs (uMLIPs) can predict cleavage energies, a critical property governing fracture, catalysis, surface stability, and interfacial phenomena. Here, we present a comprehensive benchmark of 19 state-of-the-art uMLIPs for cleavage energy prediction using our previously established density functional theory database of 36 718 slab structures spanning elemental, binary, and ternary metallic compounds. We evaluate diverse architectural paradigms, analyzing their performance across chemical compositions, crystal systems, thickness, and surface orientations. Our zero-shot evaluation results reveal that training data composition dominates architectural sophistication: models trained on the Open Materials 2024 (OMat24) dataset, which emphasizes non-equilibrium configurations, achieve mean absolute percentage errors below 6% and correctly identify the thermodynamically most stable surface terminations in 87% of cases, without any explicit surface energy training. In contrast, architecturally identical models trained on equilibrium-only datasets show five-fold higher errors, while models trained on surface-adsorbate data fail catastrophically with a 17-fold degradation. Remarkably, simpler architectures trained on appropriate data achieve comparable accuracy to complex transformers while offering 10–100× computational speedup. These findings fundamentally reframe MLIP development priorities: highlighting that strategic training-data generation with appropriate non-equilibrium sampling deserves equal or greater attention than architectural complexity.AI for Science - latest papersFri, 07 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1408[Joule] Li–Si compound anodes enabling high-performance all-solid-state Li-ion batterieshttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00376-9?rss=yesLi–Si compound anodes, exemplified by Li2.33Si, overcome the degradation issues of conventional Si anodes by combining high ionic and electronic conductivity, favorable mechanical properties, and a negligible-volume-change Li-storage mechanism (Li2.33 + αSi, 0 < α < 0.92), thereby enabling high areal capacity, long cycle life, and fast rate capability in all-solid-state Li-ion batteries.JouleFri, 07 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00376-9?rss=yes[ACS Physical Chemistry Au: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] Machine Learning as a Method for Retrieving Pressure Values by Analyzing Spectral Line Parameters: The Hydrochloric Acid Casehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097/asset/images/medium/pg5c00097_0010.gif" /></p><div><cite>ACS Physical Chemistry Au</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097</div>ACS Physical Chemistry Au: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Tue, 04 Nov 2025 19:09:10 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097[Applied Physics Reviews Current Issue] Dynamic landscape of chemiresistive breathomic nanosensors based on fifth-generation chips for complex disease diagnosis and healthcare monitoringhttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/article/12/4/041311/3371043/Dynamic-landscape-of-chemiresistive-breathomic<span class="paragraphSection">The growing global population is overwhelming the existing medical infrastructure, demanding a pressing need for the advancement of early-stage and point-of-care disease diagnostics. Conventional techniques are mostly invasive, time-consuming, expensive, sophisticated, and centered at urban facilities. Moreover, they are unable to address the biological complexities related to critical diseases, disorders, and pandemics, resulting in associated high morbidity and mortality. To address this gap, miniaturized fifth-generation sensing chips provide alternatives in terms of accessibility, affordability, and adaptability, being point-of-care and minimally invasive diagnostics. In this context, Breathomic chips based on nanoscale semiconductors have shown their potential for noninvasive, personalized, and on-site operation, offering the capability to identify volatile organic compounds/gases as disease biomarkers from exhaled breath and enabling early disease detection. However, the practical implementation of these sensors in real-time medical contexts remains challenging due to factors including the lack of clinical trials, dedicated data analysis, understanding of the complexities, public awareness, scalability, and accessibility.

However, conventional approaches rely primarily on chemical and electrical doping and focus mainly on local electrical or optical measurements, limiting their applicability to coupled functionalities. In this study, a vHs-induced insulator-metal transition coupled with a ferromagnetic phase transition was empirically achieved in atomically designed quasi-2D SrRuO<sub>3</sub> (SRO) superlattices via epitaxial strain engineering, which has not been observed in conventional 3D SRO systems. Theoretical calculations revealed that epitaxial strain effectively modulates the strength and energy positions of vHs of specific Ru orbitals, driving correlated phase transitions in the electronic and magnetic ground states. X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed the anisotropic electronic structure of quasi-2D SRO modulated by epitaxial strain. Magneto-optic Kerr effect and electrical transport measurements demonstrated modulated magnetic and electronic phases. Furthermore, magneto-electrical measurements detected significant anomalous Hall effect signals and ferromagnetic magnetoresistance, indicating the presence of magnetically coupled charge carriers in the 2D metallic regime.

However, their practical deployment is hindered by persistent challenges—dendritic growth, unstable solid electrolyte interphases (SEIs), and severe volumetric expansion. Emerging as a transformative solution, three-dimensional (3D) printing enables the rational design of multiscale architectures (e.g., micro-lattice anodes and gradient-porous cathodes) and hybrid solid-state electrolytes to address these limitations. This review presents a pioneering synthesis of 3D printing's role in lithium-metal battery engineering, focusing on its capacity to regulate lithium-ion flux, stabilize SEIs, and suppress dendrite proliferation through hierarchical structural control. We systematically analyze four key additive manufacturing technologies (inkjet printing, direct ink writing, fused deposition modeling, and stereolithography), delineating their unique advantages in tailoring ion transport pathways and mechanical robustness. Furthermore, we propose multi-material co-printing strategies to resolve interfacial incompatibilities in monolithic lithium-metal batteries, a critical barrier in current research.

We test our method for the case of spheres represented by a pair of patches in dimensions 2, 3, 4, and 5. In dimensions 2 and 3, the geometries have been fully classified. However, it is unknown whether a Ricci-flat metric can exist on spheres in dimensions 4 and 5. This work hints against the existence of such a metric.AI for Science - latest papersThu, 16 Oct 2025 23:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1117[Matter] SpectroGen: A physically informed generative artificial intelligence for accelerated cross-modality spectroscopic materials characterizationhttps://www.cell.com/matter/fulltext/S2590-2385(25)00477-1?rss=yesSpectroGen seamlessly couples physics-driven distribution models with a variable autoencoder to generate synthetic spectra indistinguishable from real data.

We proposed a CO2 atmosphere treatment to precisely modulate Li2CO3 coverage on Ni-rich layered oxide cathodes (NRLOs) with minimal damage, effectively utilizing the advantageous effect while avoiding the harmful effect of surficial Li2CO3 on the interface. This fundamental mechanism offers insights for optimizing the NRLO/sulfide solid electrolyte interface and advancing high-energy-density ASSLBs.ChemTue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/chem/fulltext/S2451-9294(25)00366-3?rss=yes[Matter] Dynamic pressure mapping of infant cervical spines using a wearable magnetoelastic patchhttps://www.cell.com/matter/fulltext/S2590-2385(25)00529-6?rss=yesTo enable continuous monitoring of infant cervical motion, we present a kirigami-inspired soft magnetoelastic patch that conforms intimately to the cervical position without compromising comfort.

In this time, the technique has experienced an incredible journey with substantial evolutions that transformed SSRM from a small-scale experiment into a staple for chip manufacturing laboratories for physical analysis of materials, failure analysis, and process development of integrated circuits. As the nanoelectronics industry is ready for a new inflection point, with the introduction of nanosheet field-effect transistor to replace FinFETs and cell track scaling architectures such as the complementary field-effect transistors, SSRM is once again at a turning point. This review aims to highlight the state-of-the-art while discussing the emerging challenges introduced by the ever-increasing complexity in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) manufacturing. We start by illustrating the unique capability of the SSRM technique, its origin, and its evolution. Next, we continue by showing the considerable research effort that enabled SSRM to transition to a tomographic sensing method in support of FinFET transistors. Here, the high aspect ratio fin geometry and the complex contacts technology have imposed important modifications to the original method. Later, we elaborate on some of the key challenges introduced by the upcoming device transition from three-sided channel FinFETs into nanosheet FETs, i.e., offering a four-sided electrostatic control of the channel. Finally, we present the use of machine learning for automation in carrier calibration with increased accuracy. We close by introducing some of the concepts that we consider promising for further extension of SSRM to obtain sub-nm structural information and doping profiles in the area of advanced FinFETs and nanosheet FET technologies, including (a) correlative analysis flow, (b) liquid-assisted probing, and (c) top–down and bottom–up multi-probe sensing schemes to merge low- and high-pressure SSRM scans.</span>Applied Physics Reviews Current IssueWed, 08 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/article/12/4/041305/3366934/The-enduring-legacy-of-scanning-spreading[Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of Contents] Oxygen Vacancy-Modulated Molybdenum Oxide/Montmorillonite Heterointerface Nanoarchitectures for Plasmon-Enhanced Solar-Osmotic Energy Harvestinghttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R<p><img src="https://www.chinesechemsoc.org/cms/asset/762823f9-fd0a-4aff-acde-289220f569a8/keyimage.png" /></p><div><cite>CCS Chemistry, Ahead of Print.</cite></div><div>DOI:10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132</div>Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic membranes with precise ion transport kinetics hold transformative potential for next-generation ion-selective membranes, yet their practical implementation in osmotic energy conversion remains constrained by inherent ...Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of ContentsMon, 06 Oct 2025 03:22:16 GMThttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R[Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of Contents] Oxygen Vacancy-Modulated Molybdenum Oxide/Montmorillonite Heterointerface Nanoarchitectures for Plasmon-Enhanced Solar-Osmotic Energy Harvestinghttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com.localhost.literatumonline.com:25116/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R<p><img src="https://www.chinesechemsoc.org/cms/asset/762823f9-fd0a-4aff-acde-289220f569a8/keyimage.png" /></p><div><cite>CCS Chemistry, Ahead of Print.</cite></div><div>DOI:10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132</div>Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic membranes with precise ion transport kinetics hold transformative potential for next-generation ion-selective membranes, yet their practical implementation in osmotic energy conversion remains constrained by inherent ...Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of ContentsMon, 06 Oct 2025 03:22:16 GMThttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com.localhost.literatumonline.com:25116/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R[APL Machine Learning Current Issue] Deep learning model of myofilament cooperative activation and cross-bridge cycling in cardiac musclehttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046101/3365811/Deep-learning-model-of-myofilament-cooperative<span class="paragraphSection">Cardiac muscle contraction is driven by the cross-bridge cycle, where myosin heads generate force by cyclically attaching to and pulling on actin filaments using energy from ATP. Modeling this process is central to understanding cardiac sarcomere mechanics. In this study, we developed supervised machine learning (ML) models using artificial neural networks (ANNs) to simulate cross-bridge cycling and muscle behavior under isosarcometric, isometric, and isotonic conditions. Trained on synthetic data, the ANN captured nonlinear dependencies among calcium concentration, stiffness, sarcomere length, temperature, and force output. Error analysis through histograms and unity-line scatterplots validated prediction accuracy and identified underfitting and overfitting patterns. Comparisons across ANN architectures showed how hidden layer complexity affects model generalization. The present deep learning models accurately reproduced key physiological behaviors, including steady-state force–Ca<sup>2+</sup> relations, sarcomere length changes, and force–velocity relations, and matched theoretical results. This work demonstrates the potential of ML tools to enhance cardiac muscle modeling and exploit existing experimental datasets for improved prediction of cardiac muscle diseases.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 03 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046101/3365811/Deep-learning-model-of-myofilament-cooperative[Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of Contents] Discovery of Novel Materials with Giant Dielectric Constants via First‐Principles Phonon Calculations and Machine Learninghttps://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/aidi.202500141?af=RAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of ContentsTue, 30 Sep 2025 06:30:24 GMT10.1002/aidi.202500141[AI for Science - latest papers] FastTrack: a fast method to evaluate mass transport in solid leveraging universal machine learning interatomic potentialhttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae0808We introduce a rapid, accurate framework for computing atomic migration barriers in crystals by combining universal machine‐learning force fields (MLFFs) with 3D potential‐energy‐surface sampling and interpolation. Our method suppresses periodic self‐interactions via supercell expansion, builds a continuous potential energy surface (PES) from MLFF energies on a spatial grid, and extracts minimum‐energy pathways without predefined nudged elastic band (NEB) images. For a benchmark set of twelve electrode and electrolyte materials, including LiCoO2, LiFePO4, and Li10GeP2S12, our MLFF‐derived barriers lie within tens of meV of density functional theory (DFT) and experiment values, while achieving a ∼100-fold speedup over standard DFT‐NEB calculations.

In this work, the phonon dynamics, carrier transport, and TE performance of the layered SmZnSbO compound are comprehensively evaluated using first-principles calculations, machine learning interatomic potentials, Boltzmann transport theory, and the two-channel model. The coexistence of weak interlayer van der Waals interactions, robust intralayer covalent bonding interactions, and rattling-like vibrations of Zn atoms synergistically induces significant lattice anharmonicity, resulting in a decreased lattice thermal conductivity (0.84 W/mK@900 K within the framework of the two-channel model) for the SmZnSbO compound. The natural quantum well architecture formed by the alternative conductive [Zn<sub>2</sub>Sb<sub>2</sub>]<sup>2−</sup> layer and the insulated [Sm<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> layer endows quasi-two-dimensional transport characteristics, enabling a high carrier mobility of 34.1 cm<sup>2</sup>/Vs.

We grow Mn<sub>4</sub>N on MgO(100) substrates, exhibiting bulk-like magnetization and strain-induced PMA, also promoted by capping the film with material with large spin–orbit coupling. We demonstrate that the interfacial anisotropy can be reversibly tuned through voltage-driven nitrogen ion migration when Mn<sub>4</sub>N is in contact with a nitrogen-affine metal, such as Ta and V. We also show that solid-state gating effectively enhances the spin–orbit torque switching efficiency by reducing the coercive field without compromising the interface transparency.

Among solid-state electrolytes, garnet-type Li<sub>7</sub>La<sub>3</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>12</sub> (LLZO) exhibits a wide electrochemical window and high lithium-ion conductivity, but poor electrode contact and Li dendrite growth restrict its practical application. To address these challenges, this study explores the application of thin film coatings composed of Li<sub>8</sub><span style="font-style: italic;">M</span>P<sub>4</sub> (<span style="font-style: italic;">M</span> = Si, Ge) at the lithium metal anode/LLZO interface. Through comprehensive first-principles thermodynamic calculations and hierarchical ion-transport algorithms, the phase stability, electrochemical stability, chemical stability, ionic transport, Li wettability, and mechanical properties of the candidate materials were systematically predicted and analyzed. Results indicate that the candidate coatings are thermodynamically stable at 0 K, with superior reduction stability against the lithium metal anode and good chemical compatibility with LLZO. Their Li-ion migration barriers are as low as 0.32 eV, enabling room-temperature ionic conductivity of approximately 10<sup>−5</sup> S/cm. Moreover, the predicted works of adhesion for Li/Li<sub>8</sub><span style="font-style: italic;">M</span>P<sub>4</sub> (<span style="font-style: italic;">M</span> = Si, Ge) are 0.99 and 0.76 J/m<sup>2</sup>, respectively, corresponding to the contact angles of 0° and 49.3°, indicating that metallic Li shows good wettability on Li<sub>8</sub><span style="font-style: italic;">M</span>P<sub>4</sub> (<span style="font-style: italic;">M</span> = Si, Ge) materials.

Routine alcohol-based cleaning can be impractical on high-touch optical surfaces due to damage risk and usability concerns. Here, we present a scalable approach to transparent, mechanically robust glass surfaces by embedding materials with <span style="font-style: italic;">ad hoc</span> functionality into surface glass nanoholes. We demonstrate the concept with copper nanodisks: copper is an established antimicrobial agent, but its wear susceptibility pose challenges for use on transparent displays. Our design shields the functional material from lateral wear while allowing ion diffusion for antimicrobial efficacy. Fabrication uses only wafer-compatible, lithography-free steps: thermal dewetting of a thin silver film to create a nanosized mask; inverting it to a polymer nanoholes mask by etching the silver nanoparticles; wet etching of the glass to form nanoholes; selective copper deposition inside these holes; and liftoff of excess material. The resulting surfaces exhibit mean transmission of 80%–85% in the 380–750 nm range with haze &lt;1% and minimal color shift, compared to uncoated glass. Antimicrobial efficacy, assessed against <span style="font-style: italic;">Escherichia coli</span> OP50 under a modified U.S. EPA protocol, shows ≈99% bacterial reduction within one hour. Abrasion tests with a crockmeter simulating finger swipes confirm that the embedded copper remains intact, with no measurable change in optical performance. This embedded design provides a scalable route to integrate antimicrobial functionality into high-touch transparent systems while preserving optical clarity and wear resistance, with potential relevance for medical, consumer, and transportation interfaces.</span>APL Materials Current IssueTue, 30 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apm/article/13/12/121112/3375772/Lithography-free-fabrication-of-transparent[ChemRxiv] Augmenting Large Language Models for Automated Discovery of f-Element Extractantshttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2025-b1m2q-v2?rft_dat=source%3DdrssEfficient separation of f-elements is a critical challenge for a wide range of emerging technologies. The chemical similarity among these elements makes the development of selective solvent extraction reagents both slow and difficult. Here, we present a quasi-autonomous, AI-enabled workflow for the design and computational screening of selective extractant ligands. Molecular design is guided by SAFE-MolGen, a large language model-based agentic system that leverages curated extraction data to propose new ligands and preliminarily rank their performance using a supervised machine learning model trained on experimental datasets to consider the impact of realistic experimental conditions. Promising human-approved ligands are then passed to a second automated pipeline that constructs three-dimensional metal-ligand complexes and performs quantum mechanical free energy calculations to directly assess metal selectivity. We demonstrate this approach for Am(III)/Eu(III) separations and report several newly designed ligands predicted to exhibit higher Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity than the benchmark extractant CyMe4BTBP. This workflow accelerates computational exploration of the molecular space in this data-sparse field and provides a general strategy for the rapid generation and evaluation of novel lanthanide (Ln) and actinide (An) extractants.ChemRxivTue, 30 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://dx.doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-2025-b1m2q-v2?rft_dat=source%3Ddrss[RSC - Chem.

While recent advances in robotic droplet imaging have facilitated the collection of such datasets, experimental acquisition remains a key bottleneck. Here, we explore whether synthetic image generation can supplement or replace real data in the context of salt classification. Using Stable Diffusion with low-rank adaptation, we generate 133 000 synthetic images from as few as <span style="font-style: italic;">N</span> = 1–128 experimental images per salt across seven common inorganic solutes.

When used to train random forest, XGBoost, and multilayer perceptron (MLP) models, synthetic data alone achieve classification accuracies of up to 90% in some low-data regimes. Synthetic augmentation offers a powerful strategy for expanding training sets and enabling image-based chemical classification in data-scarce scenarios, even if it seldom outperforms models trained on real data.

However, their reported lattice thermal conductivities ( κ) remain highly inconsistent, with experimental values and theoretical predictions differing by more than an order of magnitude. These discrepancies stem from uncertainties in measurement techniques, variations in computational protocols, and ambiguities in the treatment of higher-order anharmonic processes. In this study, we critically review these inconsistencies, first by mapping the spread of experimental and modeling results, and then by identifying the methodological origins of divergence. To this end, we bridge first-principles calculations, molecular dynamics simulations, and state-of-the-art machine learning force fields (MLFFs), including recently developed foundation models. We train and benchmark GAP, MACE, NEP, and HIPHIVE against density functional theory and rigorously evaluate the impact of third- and fourth-order phonon scattering processes on κ. The computational efficiency of MLFFs enables us to extend convergence tests beyond conventional limits and to validate predictions through homogeneous nonequilibrium molecular dynamics as well. Our analysis demonstrates that, contrary to some recent claims, fully converged four-phonon processes contribute negligibly to the intrinsic thermal conductivity of both MoS<sub>2</sub> and MoSe<sub>2</sub>.

This approach identified 12 discriminatory metabolites, with succinate showing a stepwise increase from health to sepsis to SAE and associations with clinical severity scores.iScienceMon, 22 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02781-6?rss=yes[Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] Interpreting X-ray Diffraction Patterns of Metal–Organic Frameworks via Generative Artificial Intelligencehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c16416<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/jacs.5c16416/asset/images/medium/ja5c16416_0007.gif" /></p><div><cite>Journal of the American Chemical Society</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/jacs.5c16416</div>Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Sat, 20 Dec 2025 15:03:45 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c16416[Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] A Transformative Molecular Muscle Solid Electrolytehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c18427<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/jacs.5c18427/asset/images/medium/ja5c18427_0006.gif" /></p><div><cite>Journal of the American Chemical Society</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/jacs.5c18427</div>Journal of the American Chemical Society: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Fri, 19 Dec 2025 20:12:03 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c18427[Wiley: Small Structures: Table of Contents] Li6−xFe1−xAlxCl8 Solid Electrolytes for Cost‐Effective All‐Solid‐State LiFePO4 Batterieshttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sstr.202500728?af=RSmall Structures, EarlyView.Wiley: Small Structures: Table of ContentsFri, 19 Dec 2025 18:40:34 GMT10.1002/sstr.202500728[Joule] Boosting ionic conductivity of fluoride electrolytes by polyanion coordination chemistry enabling 5 V-Class all-solid-state batterieshttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00414-3?rss=yesThis study developed a novel class of highly conductive amorphous fluoride solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) LixTi(PO4)x/3F4, using a polyanion coordination strategy. The optimized Li1.3Ti(PO4)1.3/3F4 achieves a Li+ conductivity of 1.16 × 10−5 S cm−1, two orders of magnitude higher than that of analogous Li2TiF6. Combining the inherent high-voltage stability of fluoride and the excellent ionic conductivity of Li1.3Ti(PO4)1.3/3F4, this material enables superior 5 V-class all-solid-state battery performance. This work opens a new avenue for designing high-conductivity fluoride SSEs and advancing the performance of 5 V-class all-solid-state batteries.JouleFri, 19 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00414-3?rss=yes[Recent Articles in Phys.

Historically, manual inspections have been plagued by subjectivity, inefficiency, and restricted scalability, necessitating the development of enhanced detection algorithms. This research introduces a novel approach utilizing image processing and machine learning to enhance detection accuracy and practical applicability. This strategy promotes classification stability by integrating machine learning classifiers, including k-Nearest Neighbors, Artificial Neural Networks, Decision Trees, and Linear Discriminant Analysis, with fusion techniques such as Majority Voting and Mean Fusion. The experiments utilize Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation for model evaluation to address dataset variability and deliver thorough assessments. The study’s results indicate that the suggested system surpasses existing systems in accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, attaining an overall accuracy of 98.17%. The method is effective across various noise and resolution parameters, allowing for scalability in precision agriculture applications. This discovery not only enhances the diagnosis of plant nutrient deficiencies but also enables further investigations into real-time plant health monitoring.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046111/3374702/Smart-detection-of-plant-nutrient-deficiencies[RSC - Digital Discovery latest articles] PEMD: a high-throughput simulation and analysis framework for solid polymer electrolyteshttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2026/DD/D5DD00454C<div><p><img align="center" src="http://pubs.rsc.org/services/images/RSCpubs.ePlatform.Service.FreeContent.ImageService.svc/ImageService/image/GA?id=D5DD00454C" /></p></div><div><i><b>Digital Discovery</b></i>, 2026, Advance Article<br /><b>DOI</b>: 10.1039/D5DD00454C, Paper</div><div><img alt="Open Access" src="http://sod-a.rsc-cdn.org/pubs.rsc-uat.org/content/NewImages/open_access_blue.png" /> Open Access</div><div><a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="license" target="_blank" title="This link will open in a new browser window"> <img alt="Creative Commons Licence" border="none" src="http://sod-a.rsc-cdn.org/pubs.rsc-uat.org/content/NewImages/CCBY-NC.png" /></a>&nbsp; This article is licensed under a <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="license" target="_blank" title="This link will open in a new browser window">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported Licence.</a></div><div>Shendong Tan, Bochun Liang, Dexin Lu, Chaoyuan Ji, Wenke Ji, Zihui Li, Tingzheng Hou<br />PEMD is an open-source Python framework that integrates polymer construction, force-field parameterization, multiscale simulation, and property analysis, with standardized workflows for screening and data-driven design of solid polymer electrolytes.<br />To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.<br />The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry</div>RSC - Digital Discovery latest articlesFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2026/DD/D5DD00454C[AI for Science - latest papers] Investigating CO adsorption on Cu(111) and Rh(111) surfaces using machine learning exchange-correlation functionalshttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae21faThe ‘CO adsorption puzzle’, a persistent failure of utilizing generalized gradient approximations in density functional theory to replicate CO’s experimental preference for top-site adsorption on transition-metal surfaces, remains a critical barrier in surface chemistry. While hybrid functionals such as HSE06 partially resolve this discrepancy, their prohibitive computational cost limits broader applications. We tackle this issue by adopting the Deep Kohn–Sham (DeePKS) method to train machine-learned exchange-correlation functionals. Principal component analysis reveals that the input descriptors for electronic structures separate distinctly across different chemical environments, enabling the DeePKS models to generalize to multi-element systems. We train system-specific DeePKS models for transition-metal surfaces Cu(111) and Rh(111). These models successfully recover experimental site preferences, yielding adsorption energy differences of about 10 meV compared to HSE06, and can be applied to study unseen adsorbate coverages. Furthermore, a single model for the two surfaces is trained, and the model achieves comparable accuracy in predicting not only adsorption energies and site preference but also potential energy surfaces and relaxed surface adsorption structures. The work demonstrates a promising path towards universal models, enabling catalyst exploration with hybrid functional accuracy at substantially reduced cost.AI for Science - latest papersFri, 12 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae21fa[iScience] Consensus machine learning identifies cell death gene signature for carotid artery stenosis diagnosishttps://www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(25)02658-6?rss=yesCarotid artery stenosis (CAS) is a major contributor to ischemic stroke, and molecular tools for its early detection remain limited.

We present the deterministic characterization with an integrated parallelizable hybrid resolver architecture, a hybrid machine learning framework designed for fast, accurate analysis of XFEL diagnostics using angular streaking-based sinogram images. This architecture integrates convolutional neural networks and bidirectional long short-term memory models to denoise input, identify x-ray sub-spike features, and extract sub-spike relative delays with sub-30 attosecond temporal resolution. Deployed on low-latency hardware, it achieves over 10 kHz throughput with 168.3 <span style="font-style: italic;">μ</span>s inference latency, indicating scalability to 14 kHz with field-programmable gate array integration. By transforming regression tasks into classification problems and leveraging optimized error encoding, we achieve high precision with low-latency performance that is critical for real-time streaming event selection and experimental control feedback signals. This represents a key development in real-time control pipelines for next-generation autonomous science, generally, and high repetition-rate x-ray experiments in particular.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 21 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046107/3373060/A-hybrid-neural-architecture-Online-attosecond-x[Joule] Accelerated discovery of CO2-to-C3-hydrocarbon electrocatalysts with human-in-the-loophttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00394-0?rss=yesDespite advances in automation and AI, accelerating discovery in heterogeneous electrocatalysts remains hindered by the experimental challenges of building integrated platforms for synthesis and evaluation, as well as limited performance-relevant data.

We create a database of all two-generated subgroups of the symmetric group on n-objects and conduct a classification of finite simple groups among them using shallow feed-forward neural networks. We show that this neural network classifier can decipher the property of simplicity with varying accuracies depending on the features. Our neural network model leads to a natural conjecture concerning the generators of a finite simple group. We subsequently prove this conjecture. This new toy theorem comments on the necessary properties of generators of finite simple groups. We show this explicitly for a class of sporadic groups for which the result holds.

Specifically, our benchmark tests zero- (molecules, atomic clusters, etc), one- (nanowires, nanoribbons, nanotubes, etc), two- (atomic layers and slabs) and three-dimensional (3D) (bulk materials) compounds. The benchmark reveals that while all tested models demonstrate excellent performance for 3D systems, accuracy degrades progressively for lower-dimensional structures. The best performing models for geometry optimization are orbital version 2, equiformerV2, and the equivariant Smooth Energy Network, with the equivariant Smooth Energy Network also providing the most accurate energies. Our results indicate that the best models yield, on average, errors in the atomic positions in the range of 0.01–0.02 Å and errors in the energy below 10 meV atom−1 across all dimensionalities. These results demonstrate that state-of-the-art universal MLIPs have reached sufficient accuracy to serve as direct replacements for density functional theory calculations, at a small fraction of the computational cost, in simulations spanning the full range from isolated atoms to bulk solids. More significantly, the best performing models already enable efficient simulations of complex systems containing subsystems of mixed dimensionality, opening new possibilities for modeling realistic materials and interfaces.AI for Science - latest papersMon, 17 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1208[Cell Reports Physical Science] Conjugated polyelectrolyte-aptamer hybrid for organic-electrochemical-transistor-based sensinghttps://www.cell.com/cell-reports-physical-science/fulltext/S2666-3864(25)00564-8?rss=yesJiang et al. present biofunctionalized organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs), specifically single-component materials that integrate high specificity with semiconducting properties, exemplified by p(NDI-T-ZI/EG)-aptamer.

However, this process is usually slow and expensive, especially for metallic glasses, whose formation strongly depends on the optimal combinations of multiple elements to resist crystallization. This constraint renders only several thousands of candidates explored in the vast material space since 1960. Recently, data-driven approaches armed by advanced machine learning techniques provided alternative routes for intelligent materials design. Due to data scarcity and immature material encoding, the conventional tabular data is usually mined by statistical learning algorithms, giving limited model predictability and generalizability. Here, we propose sophisticated data learning from material network representations. The node elements are encoded from the Wikipedia by a language model. Graph neural networks with versatile architectures are designed to serve as recommendation systems to explore hidden relationships among materials. By employing Wikipedia embeddings from different languages, we assess the capability of natural languages in materials design.

Despite their remarkable success in predicting bulk properties, no systematic evaluation has assessed how well these universal MLIPs (uMLIPs) can predict cleavage energies, a critical property governing fracture, catalysis, surface stability, and interfacial phenomena. Here, we present a comprehensive benchmark of 19 state-of-the-art uMLIPs for cleavage energy prediction using our previously established density functional theory database of 36 718 slab structures spanning elemental, binary, and ternary metallic compounds. We evaluate diverse architectural paradigms, analyzing their performance across chemical compositions, crystal systems, thickness, and surface orientations. Our zero-shot evaluation results reveal that training data composition dominates architectural sophistication: models trained on the Open Materials 2024 (OMat24) dataset, which emphasizes non-equilibrium configurations, achieve mean absolute percentage errors below 6% and correctly identify the thermodynamically most stable surface terminations in 87% of cases, without any explicit surface energy training. In contrast, architecturally identical models trained on equilibrium-only datasets show five-fold higher errors, while models trained on surface-adsorbate data fail catastrophically with a 17-fold degradation. Remarkably, simpler architectures trained on appropriate data achieve comparable accuracy to complex transformers while offering 10–100× computational speedup. These findings fundamentally reframe MLIP development priorities: highlighting that strategic training-data generation with appropriate non-equilibrium sampling deserves equal or greater attention than architectural complexity.AI for Science - latest papersFri, 07 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1408[Joule] Li–Si compound anodes enabling high-performance all-solid-state Li-ion batterieshttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00376-9?rss=yesLi–Si compound anodes, exemplified by Li2.33Si, overcome the degradation issues of conventional Si anodes by combining high ionic and electronic conductivity, favorable mechanical properties, and a negligible-volume-change Li-storage mechanism (Li2.33 + αSi, 0 < α < 0.92), thereby enabling high areal capacity, long cycle life, and fast rate capability in all-solid-state Li-ion batteries.JouleFri, 07 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(25)00376-9?rss=yes[ACS Physical Chemistry Au: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)] [ASAP] Machine Learning as a Method for Retrieving Pressure Values by Analyzing Spectral Line Parameters: The Hydrochloric Acid Casehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097<p><img alt="TOC Graphic" src="https://pubs.acs.org/cms/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097/asset/images/medium/pg5c00097_0010.gif" /></p><div><cite>ACS Physical Chemistry Au</cite></div><div>DOI: 10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097</div>ACS Physical Chemistry Au: Latest Articles (ACS Publications)Tue, 04 Nov 2025 19:09:10 GMThttp://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsphyschemau.5c00097[Applied Physics Reviews Current Issue] Dynamic landscape of chemiresistive breathomic nanosensors based on fifth-generation chips for complex disease diagnosis and healthcare monitoringhttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/article/12/4/041311/3371043/Dynamic-landscape-of-chemiresistive-breathomic<span class="paragraphSection">The growing global population is overwhelming the existing medical infrastructure, demanding a pressing need for the advancement of early-stage and point-of-care disease diagnostics. Conventional techniques are mostly invasive, time-consuming, expensive, sophisticated, and centered at urban facilities. Moreover, they are unable to address the biological complexities related to critical diseases, disorders, and pandemics, resulting in associated high morbidity and mortality. To address this gap, miniaturized fifth-generation sensing chips provide alternatives in terms of accessibility, affordability, and adaptability, being point-of-care and minimally invasive diagnostics. In this context, Breathomic chips based on nanoscale semiconductors have shown their potential for noninvasive, personalized, and on-site operation, offering the capability to identify volatile organic compounds/gases as disease biomarkers from exhaled breath and enabling early disease detection. However, the practical implementation of these sensors in real-time medical contexts remains challenging due to factors including the lack of clinical trials, dedicated data analysis, understanding of the complexities, public awareness, scalability, and accessibility.

However, conventional approaches rely primarily on chemical and electrical doping and focus mainly on local electrical or optical measurements, limiting their applicability to coupled functionalities. In this study, a vHs-induced insulator-metal transition coupled with a ferromagnetic phase transition was empirically achieved in atomically designed quasi-2D SrRuO<sub>3</sub> (SRO) superlattices via epitaxial strain engineering, which has not been observed in conventional 3D SRO systems. Theoretical calculations revealed that epitaxial strain effectively modulates the strength and energy positions of vHs of specific Ru orbitals, driving correlated phase transitions in the electronic and magnetic ground states. X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed the anisotropic electronic structure of quasi-2D SRO modulated by epitaxial strain. Magneto-optic Kerr effect and electrical transport measurements demonstrated modulated magnetic and electronic phases. Furthermore, magneto-electrical measurements detected significant anomalous Hall effect signals and ferromagnetic magnetoresistance, indicating the presence of magnetically coupled charge carriers in the 2D metallic regime.

However, their practical deployment is hindered by persistent challenges—dendritic growth, unstable solid electrolyte interphases (SEIs), and severe volumetric expansion. Emerging as a transformative solution, three-dimensional (3D) printing enables the rational design of multiscale architectures (e.g., micro-lattice anodes and gradient-porous cathodes) and hybrid solid-state electrolytes to address these limitations. This review presents a pioneering synthesis of 3D printing's role in lithium-metal battery engineering, focusing on its capacity to regulate lithium-ion flux, stabilize SEIs, and suppress dendrite proliferation through hierarchical structural control. We systematically analyze four key additive manufacturing technologies (inkjet printing, direct ink writing, fused deposition modeling, and stereolithography), delineating their unique advantages in tailoring ion transport pathways and mechanical robustness. Furthermore, we propose multi-material co-printing strategies to resolve interfacial incompatibilities in monolithic lithium-metal batteries, a critical barrier in current research.

The model architecture contains subnetworks for each patch in the manifold-defining atlas. Each subnetwork predicts the components of a metric in its associated patch, with the relevant Einstein conditions of the form being used as independent loss components (here , where n is the dimension of the Riemannian manifold, and the Einstein constant ). To ensure the consistency of the global structure of the manifold, another loss component is introduced across the patch subnetworks which enforces the coordinate transformation between the patches, , for an appropriate analytically known Jacobian J. We test our method for the case of spheres represented by a pair of patches in dimensions 2, 3, 4, and 5. In dimensions 2 and 3, the geometries have been fully classified. However, it is unknown whether a Ricci-flat metric can exist on spheres in dimensions 4 and 5. This work hints against the existence of such a metric.AI for Science - latest papersThu, 16 Oct 2025 23:00:00 GMThttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae1117[Matter] SpectroGen: A physically informed generative artificial intelligence for accelerated cross-modality spectroscopic materials characterizationhttps://www.cell.com/matter/fulltext/S2590-2385(25)00477-1?rss=yesSpectroGen seamlessly couples physics-driven distribution models with a variable autoencoder to generate synthetic spectra indistinguishable from real data.

We proposed a CO2 atmosphere treatment to precisely modulate Li2CO3 coverage on Ni-rich layered oxide cathodes (NRLOs) with minimal damage, effectively utilizing the advantageous effect while avoiding the harmful effect of surficial Li2CO3 on the interface. This fundamental mechanism offers insights for optimizing the NRLO/sulfide solid electrolyte interface and advancing high-energy-density ASSLBs.ChemTue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.cell.com/chem/fulltext/S2451-9294(25)00366-3?rss=yes[Matter] Dynamic pressure mapping of infant cervical spines using a wearable magnetoelastic patchhttps://www.cell.com/matter/fulltext/S2590-2385(25)00529-6?rss=yesTo enable continuous monitoring of infant cervical motion, we present a kirigami-inspired soft magnetoelastic patch that conforms intimately to the cervical position without compromising comfort.

In this time, the technique has experienced an incredible journey with substantial evolutions that transformed SSRM from a small-scale experiment into a staple for chip manufacturing laboratories for physical analysis of materials, failure analysis, and process development of integrated circuits. As the nanoelectronics industry is ready for a new inflection point, with the introduction of nanosheet field-effect transistor to replace FinFETs and cell track scaling architectures such as the complementary field-effect transistors, SSRM is once again at a turning point. This review aims to highlight the state-of-the-art while discussing the emerging challenges introduced by the ever-increasing complexity in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) manufacturing. We start by illustrating the unique capability of the SSRM technique, its origin, and its evolution. Next, we continue by showing the considerable research effort that enabled SSRM to transition to a tomographic sensing method in support of FinFET transistors. Here, the high aspect ratio fin geometry and the complex contacts technology have imposed important modifications to the original method. Later, we elaborate on some of the key challenges introduced by the upcoming device transition from three-sided channel FinFETs into nanosheet FETs, i.e., offering a four-sided electrostatic control of the channel. Finally, we present the use of machine learning for automation in carrier calibration with increased accuracy. We close by introducing some of the concepts that we consider promising for further extension of SSRM to obtain sub-nm structural information and doping profiles in the area of advanced FinFETs and nanosheet FET technologies, including (a) correlative analysis flow, (b) liquid-assisted probing, and (c) top–down and bottom–up multi-probe sensing schemes to merge low- and high-pressure SSRM scans.</span>Applied Physics Reviews Current IssueWed, 08 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/article/12/4/041305/3366934/The-enduring-legacy-of-scanning-spreading[Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of Contents] Oxygen Vacancy-Modulated Molybdenum Oxide/Montmorillonite Heterointerface Nanoarchitectures for Plasmon-Enhanced Solar-Osmotic Energy Harvestinghttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R<p><img src="https://www.chinesechemsoc.org/cms/asset/762823f9-fd0a-4aff-acde-289220f569a8/keyimage.png" /></p><div><cite>CCS Chemistry, Ahead of Print.</cite></div><div>DOI:10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132</div>Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic membranes with precise ion transport kinetics hold transformative potential for next-generation ion-selective membranes, yet their practical implementation in osmotic energy conversion remains constrained by inherent ...Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of ContentsMon, 06 Oct 2025 03:22:16 GMThttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R[Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of Contents] Oxygen Vacancy-Modulated Molybdenum Oxide/Montmorillonite Heterointerface Nanoarchitectures for Plasmon-Enhanced Solar-Osmotic Energy Harvestinghttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com.localhost.literatumonline.com:25116/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R<p><img src="https://www.chinesechemsoc.org/cms/asset/762823f9-fd0a-4aff-acde-289220f569a8/keyimage.png" /></p><div><cite>CCS Chemistry, Ahead of Print.</cite></div><div>DOI:10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132</div>Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic membranes with precise ion transport kinetics hold transformative potential for next-generation ion-selective membranes, yet their practical implementation in osmotic energy conversion remains constrained by inherent ...Chinese Chemical Society: CCS Chemistry: Table of ContentsMon, 06 Oct 2025 03:22:16 GMThttps://ccs-stag.literatumonline.com.localhost.literatumonline.com:25116/doi/abs/10.31635/ccschem.025.202506132?af=R[APL Machine Learning Current Issue] Deep learning model of myofilament cooperative activation and cross-bridge cycling in cardiac musclehttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046101/3365811/Deep-learning-model-of-myofilament-cooperative<span class="paragraphSection">Cardiac muscle contraction is driven by the cross-bridge cycle, where myosin heads generate force by cyclically attaching to and pulling on actin filaments using energy from ATP. Modeling this process is central to understanding cardiac sarcomere mechanics. In this study, we developed supervised machine learning (ML) models using artificial neural networks (ANNs) to simulate cross-bridge cycling and muscle behavior under isosarcometric, isometric, and isotonic conditions. Trained on synthetic data, the ANN captured nonlinear dependencies among calcium concentration, stiffness, sarcomere length, temperature, and force output. Error analysis through histograms and unity-line scatterplots validated prediction accuracy and identified underfitting and overfitting patterns. Comparisons across ANN architectures showed how hidden layer complexity affects model generalization. The present deep learning models accurately reproduced key physiological behaviors, including steady-state force–Ca<sup>2+</sup> relations, sarcomere length changes, and force–velocity relations, and matched theoretical results. This work demonstrates the potential of ML tools to enhance cardiac muscle modeling and exploit existing experimental datasets for improved prediction of cardiac muscle diseases.</span>APL Machine Learning Current IssueFri, 03 Oct 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://pubs.aip.org/aip/aml/article/3/4/046101/3365811/Deep-learning-model-of-myofilament-cooperative[Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of Contents] Discovery of Novel Materials with Giant Dielectric Constants via First‐Principles Phonon Calculations and Machine Learninghttps://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/aidi.202500141?af=RAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Wiley: Advanced Intelligent Discovery: Table of ContentsTue, 30 Sep 2025 06:30:24 GMT10.1002/aidi.202500141[AI for Science - latest papers] FastTrack: a fast method to evaluate mass transport in solid leveraging universal machine learning interatomic potentialhttps://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/3050-287X/ae0808We introduce a rapid, accurate framework for computing atomic migration barriers in crystals by combining universal machine‐learning force fields (MLFFs) with 3D potential‐energy‐surface sampling and interpolation. Our method suppresses periodic self‐interactions via supercell expansion, builds a continuous potential energy surface (PES) from MLFF energies on a spatial grid, and extracts minimum‐energy pathways without predefined nudged elastic band (NEB) images. For a benchmark set of twelve electrode and electrolyte materials, including LiCoO2, LiFePO4, and Li10GeP2S12, our MLFF‐derived barriers lie within tens of meV of density functional theory (DFT) and experiment values, while achieving a ∼100-fold speedup over standard DFT‐NEB calculations. We benchmark GPTFF, CHGNet, and MACE, showing that fine‐tuning on PBE/PBE + U data further enhances accuracy.
