Emerging wurtzite ferroelectric materials have attracted significant interest due to their high Spontaneous polarization magnitude (Ps). However, there is a limited understanding of the key factors that influence Ps. Herein, machine-learning regression models were developed to predict the Ps using datasets comprising 40 binary and 89 simple ternary wurtzite materials. Features were extracted based on elemental properties, crystal parameters and electronic properties. Feature selection was carried out using the Boruta algorithm and distance correlation analysis, resulting in a comprehensive machine learning model. Furthermore, SHapley Additive exPlanations analysis identified the average cation-ion potential (IPi_Aave) and the lattice parameter (a) as significant determinants of Ps, with IPi_Aave having the most prominent effect. A lower IPi_Aave corresponds to a lower Ps in the materials. Additionally, a exhibit an approximately negative correlation with Ps.
This multifactorial analysis fills the existing void in understanding the determinants of Ps, making a foundational contribution to the evaluation of emerging wurtzite materials and expediting the discovery of high-performance ferroelectric materials.
