Abstract Scope |
Materials and devices development using newly available artificial intelligence/machine learning AI/ML tools and various physical properties has become the new age mantra which needs to be changed in the current global warming scenario. Main focus of materials development therefore has to be ‘sustainability’ along with consideration of properties. Implementation of this strategy however requires identification of requisite sustainability parameters followed by collection of reliable and robust data. There are several criteria to assess sustainability and some of the important parameters are environmental and ecological impact and materials supply chain risk. In the present talk, three examples from renewable energy technologies – solar photovoltaics, thermoelectric devices and hydrogen generation have been considered. The sustainability evaluation based on these parameters has been performed and these will be discussed in detail. These parameters can be used as guidelines in AI/ML based models for developing materials and devices in general. |
