Active learning of collinear magnetic Moment Tensor Potentials using the spin-MLIP package from soft-constrained spin-polarized DFT calculations: a case study of Fe-Pd

Abstract

Explicit incorporation of magnetic degrees of freedom in machine-learning interatomic potentials (magnetic MLIPs) plays a crucial role in the correct description of magnetic materials and their properties. An important ingredient for fitting of magnetic MLIPs is spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT) calculations with non-equilibrium magnetic moments, i.e. DFT calculations with constraints on magnetic moments. In this study, we present a workflow for active learning of magnetic Moment Tensor Potential (mMTP) during molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Magnetic MTP and its active learning algorithm were implemented in the open-source spin-MLIP code, DFT soft-constrained spin-polarized calculations were performed with the VASP code, and MD simulations were conducted in the open-source LAMMPS code. We test our workflow on the Fe-Pd crystal. The dependencies of magnetization and density of states (DOSs) on the volume of a supercell (or, pressure) are in good agreement with those calculated with DFT. Furthermore, the calculated DOSs correspond to the experimental ones.
