Extreme magnetoresistance in nonmagnetic compounds has received considerable attention because this phenomenon challenges the classical understanding of electron transport under a magnetic field.
Magnetic topological semimetals, a novel state of quantum matter with nontrivial band topology, have emerged as a new frontier in physics and materials science. An external stimulus like temperature or...
High-throughput electronic structure calculations (often performed using density functional theory (DFT)) play a central role in screening existing and novel materials, sampling potential energy surfaces, and generating data for machine learning applications. By including a fraction of exact exchange (EXX), hybrid functionals reduce the self-interaction error in semilocal DFT and furnish a more accurate description of the underlying electronic structure, albeit at a computational cost that often prohibits such high-throughput applications. To address this challenge, we have constructed a robust, accurate, and computationally efficient framework for high-throughput condensed-phase hybrid DFT and implemented this approach in the module of (). The resulting approach ( = SCDM + + ACE) combines and seamlessly integrates: (i) the selected columns of the density matrix method (SCDM, a robust noniterative orbital localization scheme that sidesteps system-dependent optimization protocols), (ii) a recently extended version of (a black-box linear-scaling EXX algorithm that exploits sparsity between localized orbitals in real space when evaluating the action of the standard/full-rank operator), and (iii) adaptively compressed exchange (ACE, a low-rank approximation). In doing so, harnesses three levels of computational savings: pair selection and domain truncation from SCDM + (which only considers spatially overlapping orbitals on orbital-pair-specific and system-size-independent domains) and low-rank approximation from ACE (which reduces the number of calls to SCDM + during the self-consistent field (SCF) procedure). Across a diverse set of 200 nonequilibrium (H2O)64 configurations (with densities spanning 0.4–1.7 g/cm3), provides a 1−2 order-of-magnitude speedup in the overall time-to-solution, i.e., ≈8−26× compared to the convolution-based implementation in and ≈78−247× compared to the conventional approach, and yields energies, ionic forces, and other properties with high fidelity. As a proof-of-principle high-throughput application, we trained a deep neural network (DNN) potential for ambient liquid water at the hybrid DFT level using via an actively learned data set with ≈8,700 (H2O)64 configurations. Using an out-of-sample set of (H2O)512 configurations (at nonambient conditions), we confirmed the accuracy of this -trained potential and showcased the capabilities of by computing the ground-truth ionic forces in this challenging system containing >1,500 atoms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
