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
behavior of high-entropy alloys (HEAs). We show that existence of SROs is a common yet
key structural feature of HEAs, and tuning the degree of SROs is an effective way for
optimizing mechanical properties of HEAs. In additional, the challenges concerning about
formation mechanism and characterization of SROs in HEAs are discussed, and future …

… Controlling the short-range order in such alloys can be an effective way to form the HEA
properties. However, the formation, characterization, and modeling of short-range order in
these compositionally complex solid solutions are still far from being fully understood due to
the chemical and structural complexity of such objects, as well as its effect on physical and
mechanical properties. The report will consider modern approaches to the methods of
research and modeling of short-range order, features of the effect of composition on its …
