    Topological insulators (TIs) are an emerging class of materials that are generating considerable interest worldwide with potential for many device applications as part of next generation quantum technologies. To enable this, it is necessary to develop a detailed understanding of how the specific growth conditions affect the final properties of these materials. This project will apply solid-state density functional theory calculations and advanced ab-initio MD methods to explore the influence of structural ordering on the anharmonicity of bulk phonon properties of these materials. When coupled with experimental data, this project with apply the result to further train neural network-based machine learning models, with the aim of developing predictive tools for the rational design of future materials.
