Latent Genetic Algorithm for Crystal Structure Prediction
Kaixin Zheng, Wanjian Yin, Hongyu Yu +1
Predicting crystal structures requires navigating rugged energy landscapes in which favorable local motifs must be inherited across candidates with incompatible cells, densities, a…
Tangent-Plane Evidential Uncertainty in Active Learning for Magnetic Interatomic Potentials
Yang Cheng, Hongyu Yu, Hongjun Xiang
Magnetic interatomic potentials need to account for coupled lattice and spin degrees of freedom, yet constructing reliable training sets remains costly because noncollinear first-p…
A Fully Ab-Initio Spin-Lattice Dynamics Framework for Magnetic Materials
Xianxi Zhang, Hongyu Yu, Liangliang Hong +1
Coupled spin-lattice dynamics (SLD) underlie a wide range of magnetic phenomena, yet a unified first-principles framework that propagates both degrees of freedom without empirical…
Efficient E(3)-equivariant framework for universal charge density prediction
Xiwen Li, Zaizhou Xin, Hongyu Yu +3
Electronic structure is ubiquitously obtained via density functional theory (DFT), where the charge density plays a central role. This work presents EdenGNN (Equivariant Density Gr…
Defect-Charge-Driven 90° Switching in HfO2
Muting Xie, Hongyu Yu, Zhihao Dai +3
Hafnium dioxide (HfO2) is a CMOS-compatible ferroelectric showing both 180° and 90° switching, yet the microscopic nature of the 90° pathway remains unresolved. We show that the…
Recent Advances in Unconventional Ferroelectrics and Multiferroics
Hongyu Yu, Junyi Ji, Wei Luo +2
Emerging ferroic materials may pave a new way to next-generation nanoelectronic and spintronic devices due to their interesting physical properties. Here, we systematically review…
