  • Streamlined approach to determining thermal properties

    Fri, 04/02/2021

    Our work on using atomic coordinates to predict phonon density-of-states is highlighted at MIT News. Congratulations!

  • Our work accepted by Advanced Science. Congratulations!

    Tue, 02/02/2021

    In this work, we offered a machine-learning based predictive model that output the phonon density-of-states by inputting atomic structures. One feature is the prediction of alloy properties. Conventionally alloy prepdictions can be achieved using virtual…
