  • [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3离子液体是一种在铝离子电池中具有突出应用前景的电解液。由于该离子液体中存在的可迁移离子种类多样(Al3+、AlCl3、[AlCl4]-和[Al2Cl7]-),而且迁移离子类型之间存在实验研究尚未完全明晰的转换反应过程,这导致其离子迁移机制复杂且离子扩散动力学过程缓慢,难以通过常规的基于第一性原理分子动力学的方法实现具有显著统计意义的扩散动力学过程模拟。本文建立了不同浓度的[EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3离子液体原子尺度结构模型,并基于第一性原理分子动力学模拟和主动学习方法构建了训练集和测试集,实现了高精度的深度学习神经网络原子间势函数的拟合,其拟合能量和原子受力误差分别为5×10-4 eV/atom和5×10-2 eV/Å。进一步通过比较深度学习势与第一性原理分子动力学模拟计算得到的[EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3离子液体径向分布函数和振动谱密度函数,佐证了机器学习势进行分子动力学计算的可靠性。最后,基于深度学习势函数的分子动力学开展了针对包含104原子的不同浓度比例的[EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3离子液体纳秒级别的扩散动力性质的研究,预测显示300 K下该系列离子液体中Al3+扩散系数基本保持在4×10-7 cm2/s。基于深度学习势分子动力学轨迹明确了Al3+的两种主要扩散机制:其一为[AlCl4]-和[Al2Cl7]-在不同溶剂壳层结构的迁移机制;其二为AlCl3分子通过电解液中[Al2Cl7]-与[AlCl4]-的之间传递AlCl3互相转换实现长程输运过程。本文研究对Al离子电池离子液体电解液的Al3+传输机理进行了更加深入的阐释,并进一步推动了机器学习势在模拟具有复杂分子结构和扩散动力学反应机制的电解液领域应用。
    The [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquid is a promising prototype electrolyte for aluminumion batteries (AIBs). Its ionic transport behavior involves multiple mobile species (Al3+、 AlCl3 、 [AlCl4]- and [Al2Cl7]-), with experimentally unresolved ion migration mechanisms and conversion reactions among these species. This complexity results in heterogeneous ion migration mechanisms and sluggish diffusion kinetics, which cannot be accurately and reliably captured by the conventional first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) simulations within the very limited time duration (tens of ps) and relatively small modelling structure (less than 103 atoms). Otherwise, classic molecular dynamics simulations based on various force fields are also scarce for studying and predicting the atomic structure evolution and ion diffusion dynamics of the complex electrolyte system such as ion liquids. In this work, we successfully developed deep neural network interatomic potential (DP-potential) through machine learning techniques, combining first-principles accuracy with classical molecular dynamics efficiency, to systematically investigate various chemical and physical properties for [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion-liquid at finite temperature. Training and validation of DP potential for [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquid are implemented with a two-stage protocol, including the primary training stage and the refining stage. Before initiating the two training stages, a series of first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) simulations are performed for [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquids with different molar ratios (1.0, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7 and 2.0) and equilibrium densities (1.09 g/cm3 ~ 1.56 g/cm3) at finite temperatures (300 K and 400 K), resulting in a highly diverse training datasets spanning a board range of chemical composition and density during the primary training stage for DP potential. Then, the trained DP-potential is employed to conduct long-timescale classic molecular dynamics simulations using LAMMPS program for the [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquids to produce the atomic configurations that either show significant errors in the calculated atomic forces and total energies or exhibit the unusual atomic evolution before crashing. Those highly extrapolated atomic configurations are merged with the initial training datasets to reoptimize the DP potential in the second refining stage. Through this two-stage training approach, we successfully constructed a deep learning neural network interatomic potential with high accuracy, achieving energy prediction errors of 5×10-4 eV/atom and force prediction errors of 5×10-2 eV/Å. The reliability of the finally obtained machine learning potential is further validated through a systematic comparison of radial distribution functions (RDF) for some representative atomic pairs such as C-N, C-H, Al-Cl and Cl-H, obtained from both DP-MD and FPMD, demonstrating excellent consistency for the results between two methods. The DP-MD simulations are systematically carried out to investigate vibrational spectrum and Al3+ diffusion dynamics as well as possible conversion reactions among molecular or ionic species (Al3+、AlCl3、[AlCl4]- and [Al2Cl7]-) in [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquids within 104 atoms at finite temperature. From the calculated vibrational density of states (VDOS), it is revealed that the VDOS of [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquids could be approximated as the simple superposition of vibrational spectra of individual species ([EMIm]+, [AlCl4]-, and [Al2Cl7]-) with the dominance of H related vibrational modes above 90 THz and the Al-Cl modes below 20 THz. At 300 K, DP-MD predicts that Al3+ diffusion coefficients remain consistently around 4×10-7 cm2/s at 300 K regardless of the chemical compositions, and the estimated diffusion activation energy of ~0.20 eV closely matching experimental measurements (0.15 eV). In addition, the calculated ionic conductivity of 27.37 mS/cm for [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 at room temperature, and which is only 18.2% deviated from the experimental value (23.15 mS/cm). Notably, two distinct Al3+ diffusion mechanisms are identified in [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquid: (1) direct migration processes conducted solely by molecular species including [AlCl4]- and [Al2Cl7]-; (2) the migration of the neutral AlCl3 molecule mediated with two neighboring [AlCl4]- anions through the conversion reaction between [Al2Cl7]- and AlCl3+[AlCl4]- moieties. Furthermore, first-principles calculations on the probable dissociation pathways of [Al2Cl7]- revealed from DP-MD predict a reaction energy barrier height of 0.49 eV for the AlCl3 transferring between two [AlCl4]- anions with an increased reaction probability from 0.00047 events/(ps·Al3+) at 1:1.3 molar ratio to 0.00347 events/(ps·Al3+) at 1:1.75 molar. Overall, we have successfully proposed a highly efficient and reliable workflow to train and validate the deep neural network interatomic potential for complex electrolyte system such as [EMIm]+Cl-+AlCl3 ion liquids, thus providing a more comprehensive investigation of Al3+ transport mechanisms in ionic liquid electrolytes for aluminum-ion batteries. In conclusion, this work could further advance the application of machine learning-based potentials in simulating electrolyte systems characterized by complex molecular architectures and sluggish diffusion dynamics.
