Material Mind Inc. (MM), a start-up from Silicon Valley, took this idea and both implemented it and expanded it. They are the first company to combine the ideas of using AI tools to mine DFT patterns for signature features outlined by physical models to construct datasets of innovative materials with predicted physical properties, enabling ML training and discovery. Material Mind took their database of ~90,000 band structures, pertaining to ~50,000 materials, and created AI tools to automate detection of ‘gapped anticrossings’ and quantify the SHE for each material. With this ranked list of predicted SHE materials, they used part of the dataset as training data for ML algorithms to discover completely new SHE candidates. This success sets the stage, for the first time, for AI+ML to be used to discover materials for electronic (and in the future, magnetic and other) applications where experimental data is sparse. MM in particular is leading the charge with its prediction engine for spintronics and expects to expand in several more verticals in the near future. This approach of targeted materials and material’s property discovery may disrupt the current state of innovative materials research and revolutionise the field, dramatically increasing the rate at which technology enabling materials advancements are made.
