Research Abstract

We present results of systematic sets of first-principles calculations based on the cluster expansion method, as well as first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) simulations carried out to calculate ion conductivities at high temperature, for a diverse range of compositions in Bi2O3 and LISICON compounds. A machine-learning technique is used to combine theoretical and experimental datasets to predict the conductivity of each composition in LISICON. The insights obtained show that an iterative combination of first-principles calculations and focused experiments can greatly accelerate the materials design process by enabling a wide compositional and structural phase space to be examined efficiently.
