Dielectric Tensor Prediction for Inorganic Materials Using Latent Information from Preferred Potential
Zetian Mao, Wenwen Li, Jethro Tan
Dielectrics are crucial for technologies like flash memory, CPUs, photovoltaics, and capacitors, but public data on these materials are scarce, restricting research and development. Existing machine learning models have focused on predicting scalar polycrystalline dielectric constants, neglecting the directional nature of dielectric tensors essential for material design. This study leverages multi-rank equivariant structural embeddings from a universal neural network potential to enhance predictions of dielectric tensors. We develop an equivariant readout decoder to predict total, electronic, and ionic dielectric tensors while preserving O(3) equivariance, and benchmark its performance against state-of-the-art algorithms. Virtual screening of thermodynamically stable materials from Materials Project for two discovery tasks, high-dielectric and highly anisotropic materials, identifies promising candidates including Cs2Ti(WO4)3 (band gap E_g=2.93 eV, dielectric constant ε=180.90) and CsZrCuSe3 (anisotropic ratio αᵣ = 121.89). The results demonstrate our model's accuracy in predicting dielectric tensors and its potential for discovering novel dielectric materials.
