| Abstract Scope |
The first group of multicomponent high-entropy solid-solution materials that were discovered are called Cantor alloys, an enormous composition range with a single-phase fcc structure, based loosely on the original equiatomic five-component Cantor alloy CrMnFeCoNi. It turns out that there are literally trillions of different local atomic and nanoscale environments in Cantor alloys, and the spread of different local structures has important effects on many aspects of the material structure and properties. This talk will discuss the enormous range and complexity of the different local atomic and nanoscale environments in multicomponent high-entropy Cantor alloys and describe some of their effects on the structure and properties of the materials, including short-range order, atomic diffusion, dislocation slip and grain boundaries. |
