From Composition to Ionic Conductivity: Machine Learning-Guided Discovery and Experimental Validation of Argyrodite-Type Lithium-Ion Electrolytes. [PDF]
A composition‐driven machine learning framework, Elements‐To‐Ionics (E2I), is developed to predict the ionic conductivity of argyrodite‐type Li6PS5I solely from elemental features. Guided by E2I, the targeted synthesis of multi‐element substitutions yielded high‐conductivity (>10−2 S cm−1) sulfide solid electrolytes after hot‐pressing.
