General time-reversal equivariant neural network potential for magnetic materials
This study introduces time-reversal E(3)-equivariant neural network and SpinGNN++ framework for constructing a comprehensive interatomic potential for magnetic systems, encompassing spin-orbit coupling and noncollinear magnetic moments. SpinGNN++ integrates multitask spin equivariant neural network with explicit spin-lattice terms, including Heisenberg, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya, Kitaev, single-ion anisotropy, and biquadratic interactions, and employs time-reversal equivariant neural network to learn high-order spin-lattice interactions using time-reversal E(3)-equivariant convolutions. To validate SpinGNN++, a complex magnetic model dataset is introduced as a benchmark and employed to demonstrate its capabilities. SpinGNN++ provides accurate descriptions of the complex spin-lattice coupling in monolayer CrI$_3$ and CrTe$_2$, achieving sub-meV errors. Importantly, it facilitates large-scale parallel spin-lattice dynamics, thereby enabling the exploration of associated properties, including the magnetic ground state and phase transition. Remarkably, SpinGNN++ identifies a new ferrimagnetic state as the ground magnetic state for monolayer CrTe2, thereby enriching its phase diagram and providing deeper insights into the distinct magnetic signals observed in various experiments.
