| Abstract Scope |
Understanding Li-ion transport through the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is critical for improving the performance and safety of lithium-metal batteries. This work presents a physics-informed machine learning framework that combines density functional theory (DFT) nudged elastic band calculations with graph neural networks (GNNs) to predict Li-ion migration behavior in inorganic SEI materials. A diffusion dataset was constructed for eight major SEI components, including LiF, LiCl, LiBr, LiI, Li₂O, Li₂S, Li₃N, and Li₂CO₃, covering both grain and grain-boundary diffusion pathways. A path-aware graph variational autoencoder was used to learn latent representations of migration trajectories, and the resulting embeddings were incorporated into a predictive GNN model for migration barrier estimation. The framework achieved test-set Rē values above 0.93 for both grain and grain-boundary diffusion. Feature and latent-space analyses reveal how SEI chemistry and local interfacial structure jointly govern ion transport, enabling AI-assisted discovery and design of high-performance battery interphases. |
