As a promising material family that integrates the advantages of both alloys and ceramics, the MAX phase ceramics have attracted wide attention around the world. At the same time, improving the ...

The term “high entropy” refers to the fact that these alloys contain five or more elements in roughly equal amounts, resulting in a complex microstructure and high configurational entropy. This high ...

A team led by Caltech recently solved a decades-old materials science mystery by tracking down the origin of entropy in metallic glasses. Typically, atoms in most materials arrange themselves in ...
