Resumo: | This dissertation aimed to study and develop the implementation of unsupervised Machine Learning algorithms and methods for application to luminescent materials for solar energy conversion. The Clustering algorithm is fast and reliable and it is demonstrated in this work its ease of application to databases. A bibliographic collection was carried out using the Web of Science platform of luminescent materials and their respective optical efficiency characteristics (Quantum Yield, Optical Efficiency, Stokes Shift and Power Conversion Efficiency). The algorithm was applied to the collected data in order to form clusters that allowed identifying and grouping the similarities between the defined figures of merit. As a result, it was viable to estimate the values of the figures of merit associated with each material by calculating the average value of the nearest neighbors in the same cluster for the same figure of merit. It was also possible to demonstrate the feasibility of the method to select materials that suit the needs of the cases under study, highlighting the luminescent solar concentrator incorporated with CuInS₂/ZnS reported in the literature with a quantum yield of 91%, power conversion efficiency of 2.94% and an absorption spectrum from ultraviolet to 830nm and emission between 620 to 1240nm. This work indicates the potential of applying machine learning models to materials science problems, although there are some limitations associated with the process, namely the fact that there are different ways of calculating the same parameter in the literature. |

O algoritmo de clusterização apresenta-se como rápido e confiável e é demonstrado neste trabalho a sua facilidade de aplicação a bases de dados. Foi efetuada uma recolha bibliográfica com recurso à plataforma Web of Science de materiais luminescentes e das respetivas características de eficiência ótica (Rendimento Quântico, Eficiência Ótica, Stokes Shift e Eficiência de Conversão). O algoritmo foi aplicado aos dados recolhidos por forma a formar clusters que permitissem identificar e agrupar as semelhanças entre as figuras de mérito definidas. Em consequência, foi possível realizar uma estimativa dos valores das figuras de mérito associados a cada material através do cálculo do valor médio dos vizinhos mais próximos no mesmo cluster para a mesma figura de mérito. Foi também exequível demonstrar a viabilidade do método para selecionar materiais que se adequem ás necessidades dos problemas em estudo, destacando-se o concentrador solar luminescente incorporado com CuInS₂/ZnS reportado na literatura com um rendimento quântico de 91%, eficiência de conversão de 2.94% e ainda um espectro de absorção de ultravioleta a 830nm e de emissão entre 620 e 1240nm. Ficou neste trabalho evidenciado o potencial da aplicação de modelos de aprendizagem automática à ciência de materiais, ainda que existam algumas limitações associadas ao processo, nomeadamente o facto de existirem formas distintas de calcular o mesmo parâmetro na literatura.2023-07-11T14:26:36Z2022-12-20T00:00:00Z2022-12-20info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/38528engPereira, Bárbara Carvalhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T12:14:38Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/38528Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:08:43.941584Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
