A framework for structuring and linking battery data is demonstrated to enhance discoverability, accessibility, and interoperability in battery science. This work establishes a repository of 400 commercial cell types, enables semantic full-text searches across 80,000+ publications, and uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation to significantly improve Large Language Model accuracy and robustness against hallucinations for battery-specific queries.

Key insights

  • Structured, ontology-driven data (BattINFO, JSON-LD) is crucial for transforming fragmented battery information into machine-readable, interconnected knowledge.
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) effectively mitigates LLM hallucinations and significantly improves their accuracy when querying domain-specific scientific knowledge graphs.
  • A standardized, machine-readable Battery Cycler Language (BCL) can promote interoperability and accelerate the digitalization and automation of battery testing.
  • Current battery literature often lacks explicit and structured reporting of tested cell types and experimental conditions, which hinders data reuse and reproducibility.
