#HighEntropyAlloys
Berkeley Lab made high‑entropy alloys at 25–80 °C with water‑based chloride salts and liquid gallium, scaling the reaction to produce several grams in seconds. Read more: https://getnews.me/low-temperature-method-enables-custom-high-entropy-alloys/ #highentropyalloys #materials

Now, my third journal article, this time published in Physical Review Materials in 2023:

doi.org/10.1103/Phys...

Taking the computational approach developed in our earlier work, this time we examined the phase stability of the #Refractory #HighEntropyAlloys, examining atomic ordering tendencies
Short-range order and compositional phase stability in refractory high-entropy alloys via first-principles theory and atomistic modeling: NbMoTa, NbMoTaW, and VNbMoTaW
Using an all-electron, first-principles, Landau-type theory, we study the nature of short-range order and compositional phase stability in equiatomic refractory high-entropy alloys, NbMoTa, NbMoTaW, a...

In 2023, we published another article working on #HighEntropyAlloys in Physical Review Materials:

doi.org/10.1103/Phys...

Here, we showed how the simulated magnetic state of the alloys alters the #FreeEnergy landscape, changing the predicted #PhaseEquilibria for CrCoNi, CrFeCoNi, and CrMnFeCoNi
Interplay between magnetism and short-range order in medium- and high-entropy alloys: CrCoNi, CrFeCoNi, and CrMnFeCoNi
The impact of magnetism on predicted atomic short-range order in three medium- and high-entropy alloys is studied using a first-principles all-electron Landau-type linear-response theory, coupled with...

Back on the theme of #HighEntropyAlloys, this work from early 2024 examined how the addition of Ti to refractory high-entropy alloys led to predicted #Multiphase behaviour:

doi.org/10.1063/5.02...

We studied how the addition of Ti affected the Nb-Mo-Ta-W and V-Nb-Mo-Ta-W #Alloys
Competition between phase ordering and phase segregation in the TixNbMoTaW and TixVNbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloys
Refractory high-entropy alloys are under consideration for applications where materials are subjected to high temperatures and levels of radiation, such as in t

Next, my first 'first-author' article, published as an #EditorsSuggestion in Physical Review B in 2022:

doi.org/10.1103/Phys...

We proposed a new technique for studying phase equilibria in #HighEntropyAlloys, combining #DFT calculations, a concentration wave analysis, and #MonteCarlo simulations
Compositional phase stability in medium-entropy and high-entropy Cantor-Wu alloys from an ab initio all-electron Landau-type theory and atomistic modeling
Short-range order in high-entropy alloys (HEA) prompts exciting physical questions: What are the implications for material properties, and what underlying mechanisms are drivers? In this theoretical w...
