SOC Synthetic Microstructure Bank

QUICK START: Start with property_library.html (can be found by typing the filename into the query box) and use the interactive table to filter, sort, and select a microstructure with the desired properties. Search for the alphabetic code to obtain the corresponding dataset.

Full description:
This is a bank of 1,970 unique 3-phase electrode microstructure files. When you account for reassigning phase IDs (e.g. declare that 1=Ni and 2=pore, instead of 1=pore and 2=Ni), it actually represents 5,910 unique electrode microstructures, each of which could be considered to be either an air or a fuel electrode (e.g. declare that the phase IDs correspond to pore, Ni, and YSZ; or that they correspond to pore, LSCF, and GDC; or whatever electron-conductor and ion-conductor combination is being studied).

The voxel size is 50 nm and each electrode file contains a 4x4 grid of (12.5 micron)^3 sub-volumes. If placed together in a grid, they comprise a 50x50x12.5 micron electrode (note that the interfaces between sub-volumes will be sharp; this can be mitigated via simulating annealing/relaxation). The sub-volumes can also be used individually for a reasonably sized 12.5 micron cubic region-of-interest. A user can simply consider the voxel size to be a different value to rescale the volumes (and all of their morphological features, including particle size) as desired.

These microstructures were generated using DREAM3D. The general procedure is outlined in https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpowsour.2018.03.025

The file names are an alphabetic code having to do with the input parameters used in DREAM3D when they were generated. Most users would be best served by starting with the file property_library.html or property_library_subvols.html (which lists properties for each individual subvolume). These files contain a catalogue of the actual, measured properties of every microstructure in the database. Any combination of property values can be filtered and sorted until a desired electrode is found, at which point the user can find the file corresponding to that alphabetic code. The properties in the catalogue include connected TPB density, and for each phase: phase fraction, average particle size, polydispersity of particle size, tortuosity, and connected pair-wise interfacial area. They also include what fraction of each property is connected through to the interfaces of the volume.

If the desired combination of properties is not found at first, remember that the phase IDs can be re-assigned arbitrarily, e.g. swapping 1s and 2s. In fact, the database was generated with this in mind so as not to generate redundant microstructures. If the database does not contain the desired property combinations, try to search for the other possible permutations of those properties with re-assigned phase IDs.
