1/n I’m really happy to be co-organizing the "HoW exciting! 2026" workshop in Berlin this summer.⚛️🇩🇪 The workshop is designed to bridge the gap between solid state theory and experiments. Full details: exciting-code.org/how-exciti… @HumboldtUni @CSMB_HU #STEM #SolidStatePhysics

⚛️ Nanostructured Materials React to Constant Environmental Excitation ⚡ Ambient space is not silent. Nanostructured materials respond to constant environmental excitation at the atomic scale, translating subtle momentum transfers and lattice vibrations into steady electrical output. By combining graphene conductivity with semiconductor junction control, researchers are refining solid state architectures that operate without fuel cycles or weather dependence. The shift is architectural, not rhetorical. Energy harvest becomes embedded in matter itself, where physics sets the limits and engineering defines performance. 🔗 Read more: thedailyguardian.com/brand-d… #Nanotechnology #EnergySystems #Graphene #SolidStatePhysics #EnergyResilience

Graph Transformer Networks for Accurate Band Structure Prediction: An End-to-End Approach • Introducing Bandformer: a novel graph Transformer-based model designed for direct, end-to-end prediction of electronic band structures from crystal structures, bypassing intermediate calculations like Hamiltonian matrices. • Key innovation: Bandformer treats band structure prediction as a “language translation” problem, encoding crystal graphs and translating them into band structure sequences. It leverages graph-to-sequence (graph2seq) architectures for exceptional precision. • Achievements: The model achieves a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.14 eV for band energy prediction and excels in band-derived properties, with MAEs of 72 meV for band centers, 84 meV for band dispersions, and 0.164 eV for band gap predictions in non-metals. • Efficiency breakthrough: Bandformer integrates smooth k-point resampling and the Latimer-Munro (LM) scheme to handle variable k-paths, maintaining computational efficiency and ensuring consistent inputs for training. • Generalization capability: Trained on 55,000 crystal structures from the Materials Project, Bandformer generalizes across diverse datasets, enabling large-scale material screening and inverse material design with minimal preprocessing. • Future implications: By simplifying band structure representations and improving learning efficiency, Bandformer paves the way for advanced electronic structure prediction tools that can accelerate material discovery. 📜Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2411.16483 #MaterialScience #BandStructure #GraphTransformers #MachineLearning #SolidStatePhysics
