T2MAT (text-to-materials): A universal framework for generating material structures with goal properties from a single sentence

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content (AIGC)-content autonomously produced by AI systems without human intervention-has significantly boosted efficiency across various fields. However, the AIGC in material science faces challenges in the ability to efficiently discover innovative materials that surpass existing databases, alongside the invariances and stability considerations of crystal structures. To address these challenges, we develop T2MAT (Text-to-Material), a comprehensive framework processing from a user-input sentence to inverse design material structures with goal properties beyond the existing database via globally exploring chemical space, followed by an entirely automated workflow of first principal validation. Furthermore, we propose CGTNet (Crystal Graph Transformer NETwork), a novel graph neural network model that captures long-term interactions, to enhance the accuracy and data efficiency of property prediction and thereby improve the reliability of inverse design. Through these contributions, T2MAT minimizes the dependency on human expertise and significantly enhances the efficiency of designing novel, high-performance functional materials, thereby actualizing AIGC in the materials design domain.
