Enhancing EBSD throughput of battery electrode materials using super-resolution generative adversarial networks

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper presents a super‑resolution generative adversarial network (SRGAN) that boosts electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) throughput for lithium‑ion battery electrode materials. Trained on LiNixMnyCozO2 cathode data, the SRGAN outperforms classical interpolation across 2×–12× upscaling, especially preserving small grains and realistic boundaries. A 5× upscaling yields a 25× speed‑up or larger field of view with acceptable errors in grain size and shape metrics.

Enhancing EBSD throughput of battery electrode materials using super-resolution generative adversarial networks

The paper presents a super‑resolution generative adversarial network (SRGAN) that boosts the throughput of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) for Li‑ion battery electrode materials. By training on LiNixMnyCozO2 cathode data, the SRGAN outperforms classical interpolation across upscaling factors of 2× to 12×, especially preserving small grains and realistic boundaries. A 5× upscaling yields a 25× speed‑up or larger field of view with acceptable accuracy, reducing grain‑size errors to within ±15%.

4DMulti: automated multicomponent identification at complex material interfaces

4DMulti is a physics‑guided learning framework that automates multicomponent identification from large‑scale four‑dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy data. It leverages a 6‑million‑pattern diffraction database, a retrieval‑conditioned latent diffusion transformer (Sim2real) for realistic pattern generation, and a rotation‑invariant convolutional network for phase classification, achieving 98.82% accuracy on a five‑phase benchmark. The method introduces a diffraction‑inferred structural complexity metric and produces single‑nanometer‑resolution structural maps of complex material interfaces such as superconducting heterostructures, corroded alloys, and degraded solid‑state battery interfaces.

Data-efficient crack quantification in lithium-ion cathodes using foundation model transfer

The paper presents a data‑efficient method for quantifying cracks in lithium‑ion cathodes using a frozen self‑supervised vision‑transformer encoder, a lightweight decoder, and iterative model‑assisted annotation. Applied to three 120‑megapixel NMC cathode cross‑sections, the framework distinguishes intragranular from early and late intergranular cracks, providing per‑particle distributions of crack width, tortuosity, and area fraction. Late intergranular crack coverage reaches 4.6% in cycled samples versus 0.5% in initial and calendar‑aged samples, indicating degradation primarily from electrochemical cycling.
