Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of solar photocatalysis, and in particular to a data-driven two-dimensional bimetallic oxygen compound carbon dioxide reduction photocatalyst material design method, system and medium. Background Art

[0002] The large-scale combustion of fossil fuels and industrial production processes will produce a large amount of greenhouse gases, accelerating global warming and causing major changes in the earth's climate. Carbon dioxide is a major greenhouse gas, and finding suitable catalysts to convert it into chemicals (such as CO, CH3OH, CH4, etc.) is the key to solving this problem. Among various conversion methods, photocatalysis is an important method that uses clean, safe and renewable solar-driven catalysts for carbon dioxide conversion.

[0003] Two-dimensional materials have attracted much attention in the field of photocatalysis due to their excellent stability, unique light absorption properties and high surface catalytic activity. As a bimetallic compound, A2B2X6 has a distinct two-dimensional layered structure, each layer consisting of A, B and X atoms, and stacked together through van der Waals interactions. The two-dimensional layered structure provides a larger specific surface area, allowing more reactants to contact the catalyst surface, thereby improving the reaction efficiency. Van der Waals interactions lead to a weakening of the interlayer binding force, making it easier for electrons and holes to migrate between layers, reducing the chance of carrier recombination. These characteristics fully demonstrate that the A2B2X6 bimetallic compound with a two-dimensional structure has the potential to be a photocatalyst for carbon dioxide reduction.

[0004] Although there are various methods for synthesizing new photocatalytic materials in the laboratory, such as sol-gel method, hydrothermal synthesis, etc., these methods are often time-consuming, expensive, and have a very low trial-and-error rate. Blindly conducting experiments may not meet the needs of large-scale catalyst synthesis.

[0005] The introduction of density functional theory provides researchers with a more effective method to simulate and screen new photocatalytic materials. However, density functional theory research is often too computationally expensive, too slow, and too inefficient when dealing with large-scale systems and complex materials. In recent years, with the development of materials informatics, the combination of machine learning calculations and first-principles calculations has developed rapidly in various fields and has been proven to be an effective way to accelerate the material design process.

[0006] In material design, how to predict the photocatalytic performance of candidate materials with the help of machine learning methods and screen out suitable photocatalysts with the help of the prediction results has become one of the problems that technicians in this field want to actively solve.

[0080] Step 2: Based on machine learning, the initial data set is cleaned and preprocessed to obtain a modeling data set for machine learning. The modeling data set includes the input characteristics, stability, and band structure information of the two-dimensional material. The input characteristics are used as variables, and the stability and band structure information are used as target variables. The problem attributes of machine learning are determined according to different target variables.
