Atomic structure analysis of crystalline materials is a paramount endeavor in both chemical and material sciences. This sophisticated technique necessitates not only a solid foundation in crystallography but also a profound comprehension of the intricacies of the accompanying software, posing a significant challenge in meeting the rigorous daily demands. For the first time, we confront this challenge head-on by harnessing the power of deep learning for ultra-precise structural analysis at the full-atom level. To validate the performance of the model, named CrystalX, we employed a vast dataset comprising over 50,000 X-ray diffraction measurements derived from authentic experiments, demonstrating performance that is commensurate with human experts and adept at deciphering intricate geometric patterns. Remarkably, CrystalX revealed that even peer-reviewed publications can harbor errors that are stealthy to human scrutiny, yet CrystalX adeptly rectifies them. This deep learning model revolutionizes the time frame for crystal structure analysis, slashing it down to seconds. It has already been successfully applied in the structure analysis of newly discovered compounds in the latest research without human intervention. Overall, CrystalX marks the beginning of a new era in automating routine structural analysis within self-driving laboratories. |
