High throughput calculations for a dataset of bilayer materials.

ABSTRACT: Bilayer materials made of 2D monolayers are emerging as new systems creating diverse opportunities for basic research and applications in optoelectronics, thermoelectrics, and topological science among others. Herein, we present a computational bilayer materials dataset containing 760 structures with their structural, electronic, and transport properties. Different stacking patterns of each bilayer have been framed by analyzing their monolayer symmetries. Density functional theory calculations including van der Waals interactions are carried out for each stacking pattern to evaluate the corresponding ground states, which are correctly identified for experimentally synthesized transition metal dichalcogenides, graphene, boron nitride, and silicene. Binding energies and interlayer charge transfer are evaluated to analyze the interlayer coupling strength. Our dataset can be used for materials screening and data-assisted modeling for desired thermoelectric or optoelectronic applications.

Printable high-efficiency organic ionic photovoltaic materials discovered by high-throughput first-principle calculations.

Project description:Printable solar cells are promising for low cost and large-scale production. As the two main classes of printable solar cells, organic and perovskite solar cells show distinct advantages and apparent drawbacks. The latter stand as major obstacle toward their commercialization. It is amazing if the advantages of organic and perovskite solar cells are integrated since some of them are complementary. Here, we report ionic-type high-efficiency photovoltaic materials which achieve this goal. We explore 46,388 organic materials from the Crystallography Open Database by extensive quantum mechanical calculations. Through photovoltaic-functionality-directed materials screening, we identify 5 organic ionic-type photovoltaic materials. They show the merits of nontoxic, high dielectric constant (27.03), high theoretical efficiency (28.7%), and superior thermal stability. Our findings propose ionic-type photovoltaic materials, which may surpass traditional organic and perovskite materials and open the door to next-generation printable solar cells.

High-throughput binding affinity calculations at extreme scales.

Project description:BackgroundResistance to chemotherapy and molecularly targeted therapies is a major factor in limiting the effectiveness of cancer treatment. In many cases, resistance can be linked to genetic changes in target proteins, either pre-existing or evolutionarily selected during treatment. Key to overcoming this challenge is an understanding of the molecular determinants of drug binding. Using multi-stage pipelines of molecular simulations we can gain insights into the binding free energy and the residence time of a ligand, which can inform both stratified and personal treatment regimes and drug development. To support the scalable, adaptive and automated calculation of the binding free energy on high-performance computing resources, we introduce the High-throughput Binding Affinity Calculator (HTBAC). HTBAC uses a building block approach in order to attain both workflow flexibility and performance.ResultsWe demonstrate close to perfect weak scaling to hundreds of concurrent multi-stage binding affinity calculation pipelines. This permits a rapid time-to-solution that is essentially invariant of the calculation protocol, size of candidate ligands and number of ensemble simulations.ConclusionsAs such, HTBAC advances the state of the art of binding affinity calculations and protocols. HTBAC provides the platform to enable scientists to study a wide range of cancer drugs and candidate ligands in order to support personalized clinical decision making based on genome sequencing and drug discovery.

Discriminative motif analysis of high-throughput dataset.

Project description:MotivationHigh-throughput ChIP-seq studies typically identify thousands of peaks for a single transcription factor (TF). It is common for traditional motif discovery tools to predict motifs that are statistically significant against a naïve background distribution but are of questionable biological relevance.ResultsWe describe a simple yet effective algorithm for discovering differential motifs between two sequence datasets that is effective in eliminating systematic biases and scalable to large datasets. Tested on 207 ENCODE ChIP-seq datasets, our method identifies correct motifs in 78% of the datasets with known motifs, demonstrating improvement in both accuracy and efficiency compared with DREME, another state-of-art discriminative motif discovery tool. More interestingly, on the remaining more challenging datasets, we identify common technical or biological factors that compromise the motif search results and use advanced features of our tool to control for these factors. We also present case studies demonstrating the ability of our method to detect single base pair differences in DNA specificity of two similar TFs. Lastly, we demonstrate discovery of key TF motifs involved in tissue specification by examination of high-throughput DNase accessibility data.AvailabilityThe motifRG package is publically available via the bioconductor repository.Contactyzizhen@fhcrc.orgSupplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

High-throughput calculations of catalytic properties of bimetallic alloy surfaces.

Project description:A comprehensive database of chemical properties on a vast set of transition metal surfaces has the potential to accelerate the discovery of novel catalytic materials for energy and industrial applications. In this data descriptor, we present such an extensive study of chemisorption properties of important adsorbates - e.g., C, O, N, H, S, CHx, OH, NH, and SH - on 2,035 bimetallic alloy surfaces in 5 different stoichiometric ratios, i.e., 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. To our knowledge, it is the first systematic study to compile the adsorption properties of such a well-defined, large chemical space of catalytic interest. We propose that a collection of catalytic properties of this magnitude can assist with the development of machine learning enabled surrogate models in theoretical catalysis research to design robust catalysts with high activity for challenging chemical transformations. This database is made publicly available through the platform www.Catalysis-hub.org for easy retrieval of the data for further scientific analysis.

High-throughput printing of combinatorial materials from aerosols.

Project description:The development of new materials and their compositional and microstructural optimization are essential in regard to next-generation technologies such as clean energy and environmental sustainability. However, materials discovery and optimization have been a frustratingly slow process. The Edisonian trial-and-error process is time consuming and resource inefficient, particularly when contrasted with vast materials design spaces1. Whereas traditional combinatorial deposition methods can generate material libraries2,3, these suffer from limited material options and inability to leverage major breakthroughs in nanomaterial synthesis. Here we report a high-throughput combinatorial printing method capable of fabricating materials with compositional gradients at microscale spatial resolution. In situ mixing and printing in the aerosol phase allows instantaneous tuning of the mixing ratio of a broad range of materials on the fly, which is an important feature unobtainable in conventional multimaterials printing using feedstocks in liquid-liquid or solid-solid phases4-6. We demonstrate a variety of high-throughput printing strategies and applications in combinatorial doping, functional grading and chemical reaction, enabling materials exploration of doped chalcogenides and compositionally graded materials with gradient properties. The ability to combine the top-down design freedom of additive manufacturing with bottom-up control over local material compositions promises the development of compositionally complex materials inaccessible via conventional manufacturing approaches.

Research data infrastructure for high-throughput experimental materials science.

Project description:The High-Throughput Experimental Materials Database (HTEM-DB, htem.nrel.gov) is a repository of inorganic thin-film materials data collected during combinatorial experiments at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). This data asset is enabled by NREL's Research Data Infrastructure (RDI), a set of custom data tools that collect, process, and store experimental data and metadata. Here, we describe the experimental data flow from the RDI to the HTEM-DB to illustrate the strategies and best practices currently used for materials data at NREL. Integration of the data tools with experimental instruments establishes a data communication pipeline between experimental researchers and data scientists. This work motivates the creation of similar workflows at other institutions to aggregate valuable data and increase their usefulness for future machine learning studies. In turn, such data-driven studies can greatly accelerate the pace of discovery and design in the materials science domain.

High-throughput formation of lipid bilayer membrane arrays with an asymmetric lipid composition.

Project description:We present a micro-device in which more than 10,000 asymmetric lipid bilayer membranes are formed at a time on micro-chamber arrays. The arrayed asymmetric lipid bilayers, where lipid compositions are different between the inner and outer leaflets, are formed with high efficiency of over 97% by injecting several types of liquids into a micro-device that has hydrophilic-in-hydrophobic surfaces. The lipid compositional asymmetry is an intrinsic property of bio-membranes, and therefore, this micro-device extends the versatility of artificial lipid-bilayer systems, which were previously limited to symmetric bilayer formation, and could contribute to the understanding of the role of lipid compositional asymmetry in cell physiology and also to further analytical and pharmacological applications.

A high-throughput microfluidic bilayer co-culture platform to study endothelial-pericyte interactions.

Project description:Microphysiological organ-on-chip models offer the potential to improve the prediction of drug safety and efficacy through recapitulation of human physiological responses. The importance of including multiple cell types within tissue models has been well documented. However, the study of cell interactions in vitro can be limited by complexity of the tissue model and throughput of current culture systems. Here, we describe the development of a co-culture microvascular model and relevant assays in a high-throughput thermoplastic organ-on-chip platform, PREDICT96. The system consists of 96 arrayed bilayer microfluidic devices containing retinal microvascular endothelial cells and pericytes cultured on opposing sides of a microporous membrane. Compatibility of the PREDICT96 platform with a variety of quantifiable and scalable assays, including macromolecular permeability, image-based screening, Luminex, and qPCR, is demonstrated. In addition, the bilayer design of the devices allows for channel- or cell type-specific readouts, such as cytokine profiles and gene expression. The microvascular model was responsive to perturbations including barrier disruption, inflammatory stimulation, and fluid shear stress, and our results corroborated the improved robustness of co-culture over endothelial mono-cultures. We anticipate the PREDICT96 platform and adapted assays will be suitable for other complex tissues, including applications to disease models and drug discovery.

High-throughput density-functional perturbation theory phonons for inorganic materials.

Project description:The knowledge of the vibrational properties of a material is of key importance to understand physical phenomena such as thermal conductivity, superconductivity, and ferroelectricity among others. However, detailed experimental phonon spectra are available only for a limited number of materials, which hinders the large-scale analysis of vibrational properties and their derived quantities. In this work, we perform ab initio calculations of the full phonon dispersion and vibrational density of states for 1521 semiconductor compounds in the harmonic approximation based on density functional perturbation theory. The data is collected along with derived dielectric and thermodynamic properties. We present the procedure used to obtain the results, the details of the provided database and a validation based on the comparison with experimental data.
