Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Machine learning (ML) has become a valuable tool to assist and improve materials characterization, enabling automated interpretation of experimental results with techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron microscopy. Because ML models are fast once trained, there is a key opportunity to bring interpretation in-line with experiments and make on-the-fly decisions to achieve optimal measurement effectiveness, which creates broad opportunities for rapid learning and information extraction from experiments. Here, we demonstrate such a capability with the development of autonomous and adaptive XRD. By coupling an ML algorithm with a physical diffractometer, this method integrates diffraction and analysis such that early experimental information is leveraged to steer measurements toward features that improve the confidence of a model trained to identify crystalline phases. We validate the effectiveness of an adaptive approach by showing that ML-driven XRD can accurately detect trace amounts of materials in multi-phase mixtures with short measurement times. The improved speed of phase detection also enables in situ identification of short-lived intermediate phases formed during solid-state reactions using a standard in-house diffractometer. Our findings showcase the advantages of in-line ML for materials characterization and point to the possibility of more general approaches for adaptive experimentation.
