AI agents reveal how aluminum nanoparticles oxidize at the atomic scale

The Brief · written from 2 sources

• Researchers used MLP Copilot, a newly developed AI agent, to build atomic-scale models of how atoms interact.
• The work examines how protective oxide shells regulate the oxidation of aluminum nanoparticles.
• The framework automates steps such as choosing new calculations, testing successive models and tracking interaction mechanisms.
