Building Ouro, using AI to search for room-temp superconductors and rare-earth free permanent magnets.
This paper describes the open Novamag database that has been developed for the design of novel Rare-Earth free/lean permanent magnets. The database software technologies, its friendly graphical user interface, advanced search tools and available data are explained in detail. Following the philosophy and standards of Materials Genome Initiative, it contains significant results of novel magnetic phases with high magnetocrystalline anisotropy obtained by three computational high-throughput screening approaches based on a crystal structure prediction method using an Adaptive Genetic Algorithm, tetragonally distortion of cubic phases and tuning known phases by doping.

Room-temperature ferromagnets are high-value targets for discovery given the ease by which they could be embedded within magnetic devices. However, the multitude of potential interactions among magnetic ions and their surrounding environments renders the prediction of thermally stable magnetic properties challenging. Therefore, it is vital to explore methods that can effectively screen potential candidates to expedite the discovery of novel ferromagnetic materials within highly intricate feature spaces. To this end, the authors explore machine-learning (ML) methods as a means to predict the Curie temperature (Tc) of ferromagnetic materials by discerning patterns within materials databases.
Atomistic modelling of magnetic materials provides unprecedented detail about the underlying physical processes that govern their macroscopic properties, and allows the simulation of complex effects such as surface anisotropy, ultrafast laser-induced spin dynamics, exchange bias, and microstructural effects. Here the authors present the key methods used in atomistic spin models which are then applied to a range of magnetic problems. They detail the parallelization strategies used which enable the routine simulation of extended systems with full atomistic resolution.
This paper presents MatterGen, a model that generates stable, diverse inorganic materials across the periodic table and can further be fine-tuned to steer the generation towards a broad range of property constraints. To enable this, the authors introduce a new diffusion-based generative process that produces crystalline structures by gradually refining atom types, coordinates, and the periodic lattice.
This paper introduces LLaDA, a diffusion model trained from scratch under the pre-training and supervised finetuning (SFT) paradigm. LLaDA models distributions through a forward data masking process and a reverse process, parameterized by a vanilla Transformer to predict masked tokens. https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.09992

Authors introduce Orb, a family of universal interatomic potentials for atomistic modeling of materials. Orb models are 3-6 times faster than existing universal potentials, stable under simulation for a range of out of distribution materials and, upon release, represented a 31% reduction in error over other methods on the Matbench Discovery benchmark. https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.22570
