精确模拟气体-表面散射需要在广阔构型和能量范围内保持可靠的势能面,同时具备高效性以支持大规模轨迹采样。本文提出一种数据驱动的工作流,构建针对气体-表面散射动力学的机器学习势(MLIP),以一氧化氮(NO)在高度取向热解石墨(HOPG)上的散射为基准体系。从初始的从头算分子动力学(AIMD)数据集出发,采用SOAP描述符表征局部原子环境,并通过主成分分析降维至低维特征空间。利用最远点采样构建紧凑训练集,再通过查询-委员会主动学习策略,引入不同入射能量与表面温度下的新构型进行模型优化。最终的深度势模型准确复现参考能量与力,实现计算成本远低于AIMD的大规模分子动力学模拟。模拟揭示了吸附能、捕获与直接散射概率、平动能量损失、角度分布及转动激发等细节,整体结果与主要实验趋势一致,证明基于描述符引导采样与主动学习相结合,是构建可迁移气体-表面相互作用机器学习势的有效策略。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Accurate atomistic simulations of gas-surface scattering require potential energy surfaces that remain reliable over broad configurational and energetic ranges while retaining the efficiency needed for extensive trajectory sampling. Here, we develop a data-driven workflow for constructing a machine-learning interatomic potential (MLIP) tailored to gas-surface scattering dynamics, using nitric oxide (NO) scattering from highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) as a benchmark system. Starting from an initial ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) dataset, local atomic environments are described by SOAP descriptors and analyzed in a reduced feature space obtained through principal component analysis. Farthest point sampling is then used to build a compact training set, and the resulting Deep Potential model is refined through a query-by-committee active-learning strategy using additional configurations extracted from molecular dynamics simulations over extended ranges of incident energies and surface temperatures. The final MLIP reproduces reference energies and forces with high fidelity and enables large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of NO scattering from graphite at a computational cost far below that of AIMD. The simulations provide detailed insight into adsorption energetics, trapping versus direct scattering probabilities, translational energy loss, angular distributions, and rotational excitation. Overall, the results reproduce the main experimental trends and demonstrate that descriptor-guided sampling combined with active learning offers an efficient and transferable strategy for constructing MLIPs for gas-surface interactions.
