New V-PaSS system improves perovskite solar cell prediction

Researchers have developed the Virtual-Alloy Physics-Aware Semantic System (V-PaSS), a novel architecture designed to improve the predictive accuracy of machine-learning models for perovskite solar cells. Unlike previous models that treat material components as simple labels or rigid structures, V-PaSS incorporates the physical continuity of perovskite solid solutions by interpolating crystal graphs and learning bandgap bowing. It also couples layer sequences, cell polarity, and chemical descriptions using a scientific language model. In evaluations, V-PaSS demonstrated superior performance, achieving the lowest error rate among fourteen tested models and significantly outperforming baselines, particularly on devices with new alloys or unseen transport layers.

    Virtual-Alloy Physics-Aware Semantic System for extrapolative prediction of perovskite solar cells

    arXiv:2610.18949v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing machine-learning models for perovskite solar cells struggle to predict devices made from new materials. Most treat device layers as arbitrary categorical labels and represent perovskite absorbers either through featureles…
