<title>Abstract</title> Tight-binding (TB) model is crucial for quantum transport simulations of semiconductor devices, critically determining the electrical characteristics of channel materials. Here, we propose a graph neural network (GNN)-based framework for automated TB model construction. By integrating atomic sites (nodes) and chemical bonds (edges) into atomistic graph representations, our method efficiently extracts orbital onsite energies and inter-orbital hopping parameters through supervised learning of…
