Simultaneously enhancing strength and ductility of metals and alloys has been a
tremendous challenge. Here, we investigate a CoCuFeNiPd high-entropy alloy (HEA), using …

This study demonstrates that we can break the strength-ductility paradox in face-centered
cubic (FCC) high-entropy alloys (HEAs) by introducing local chemical ordering. Employing …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are emerging materials that are developed based on entropy,
and draw significant attention for the potential to design their chemical disorder to bring out …

In this letter, we briefly summarize experimental and theoretical findings of formation and
characterization of short-range orderings (SROs) as well as their effects on the deformation …

In this work, we perform first-principles calculations, coupled with synchrotron small-angle x-
ray scattering (SAXS) to investigate electronic origins of the chemical short-range ordering …

Here, a new strategy, ie, laser shock peening (LSP) followed by cyclic deep cryogenic
treatment (DCT), is proposed to generate the gradient hierarchical structures and thus …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are presently of great research interest in materials science and
engineering. Unlike conventional alloys, which contain one and rarely two base elements …

Recently-developed high-entropy alloys (HEAs) containing multiple principal metallic
elements have extended the compositional space of solid solutions and the range of their …

Similar to conventional materials, most multicomponent high-entropy alloys (HEAs) lose
ductility as they gain strength. In this study, we controllably introduced gradient nanoscaled …

Metallic alloys containing multiple principal alloying elements have created a growing
interest in exploring the property limits of metals and understanding the underlying physical …
