Abstract
Ternary gold alloys (TGAs) are highly regarded for their excellent electrical properties. Electrical resistivity is a crucial indicator for evaluating the electrical performance of TGAs. To explore new promising TGAs with lower resistivity, we developed a reverse design approach integrating machine learning techniques and proactive searching progress (PSP) method. Compared with other models, the support vector regression (SVR) was determined to be the most optimal model for resistivity prediction. The training and test sets yielded R2 values of 0.73 and 0.77, respectively. The model interpretation indicated that lower electrical resistivity was associated with the following conditions: a van der Waals Radius (Vrt) of 0, a Vr (another van der Waals Radius) of less than 217, and a mass attenuation coefficient of MoKα (Macm) greater than 77.5 cm2g-1. Applying the PSP method, we successfully identified eight candidates whose resistivity was lower than that of the sample with the lowest resistivity in the dataset by more than 53-60%, e.g., Au1.000Cu4.406Pt1.833 and Au1.000Pt2.232In1.502. Finally, the candidates were validated to possess low resistivity through the pattern recognition method.
