The thermodynamic properties of the Zr-Nb alloy are investigated at temperatures below 890 K with ab initio calculations. The solution energies of the bcc Nb-rich and hcp Zr-rich solid solutions obtained within the framework of density…
Energy efficiency is motivating the search for new high-temperature metals. Some new body-centered-cubic random multicomponent "high entropy alloys (HEAs)" based on refractory elements (Cr-Mo-Nb-Ta-V-W-Hf-Ti-Zr) possess exceptional…
Co-based superalloys in the Co-Al-W system exhibit coherent L12 Co3(Al,W) \gamma' precipitates in an fcc Co \gamma matrix, analogous to Ni3Al in Ni-based systems. Unlike Ni3Al however, experimental observations of Co3(Al,W) suggest that it…
High-entropy alloys and ceramics containing at least five principal elements have recently received high attention for various mechanical and functional applications. The application of severe plastic deformation (SPD), particularly the…
We have investigated the plastic deformation properties of non-equiatomic single phase Zr-Nb-Ti-Ta-Hf high-entropy alloys from room temperature up to 300 {\deg}C. Uniaxial deformation tests at a constant strain rate of 10$^{-4}$ s$^{-1}$…
We investigate how strongly broken spatial symmetries affect the Kohn--Luttinger (KL) mechanism, in which superconductivity emerges purely from repulsive interactions. While the original KL argument assumes continuous rotational symmetry,…
Damage-tolerance can be an elusive characteristic of structural materials requiring both high strength and ductility, properties that are often mutually exclusive. High-entropy alloys are of interest in this regard. Specifically, the…
Here we report the discovery of the first ternary molybdenum pnictide based superconductor K2Mo3As3. Polycrystalline samples were synthesized by the conventional solid state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals a…
Superconducting high-entropy alloys have recently emerged as a new platform for exploring superconductivity in highly disordered metallic systems and may offer advantages for applications requiring mechanical robustness and tolerance to…
Available information concerning the elastic moduli of refractory carbides at temperatures (T) of relevance for practical applications is sparse and/or inconsistent. We carry out ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations at T = 300,…
Developing ductile refractory BCC alloys has remained a challenge. The intrinsic ductility (D) of an alloy is the ratio of surface energy ($\gamma_s$) and unstable stacking fault energy ($\gamma_{usfe}$). Lowering the valence electron…
This study presents a computationally efficient framework for accelerated alloy discovery that uses the non-interacting electron density to capture intrinsic structure-property relationships in refractory high-entropy alloys (HEAs). Unlike…
Refractory high entropy alloys (RHEA) have been proven to have excellent mechanical properties with a potential use as protective thin films. However, the combination of high hardness with low friction and wear is a major challenge in the…
The equations of state at room temperature as well as the energies of crystal structures up to pressures exceeding 100 GPa are calculated for Na and K . It is shown that the allowance for generalized gradient corrections (GGA) in the…
The exceptional mechanical strengths of medium and high-entropy alloys have been attributed to hardening in random solid solutions. Here, we evidence non-random chemical mixings in CrCoNi alloys, resulting from short range ordering. A novel…
We demonstrate the development of a series of refractory high-entropy alloys containing aluminum AlRHEAs in the ordered BCC-B2 phase by varying the aluminum content within 10 to 25 atomic percent, with the goal of high strength and good…
Recent experiments demonstrate a "robust superconductivity phenomenon" in niobium-based alloys, where the superconducting state remains intact and the critical temperature ($T_c$) is largely unaffected by external pressure well above tens…
Entropic contributions to the stability of solids are very well understood and the mixing entropy has been used for forming various solids, for instance such as inverse spinels. A particular development was related to high entropy alloys in…
Ni-Mo superalloys have emerged as materials of choice for a diverse array of applications owing to their superior mechanical properties, exceptional corrosion and oxidation resistance, electrocatalytic behavior, and surface stability.…
The parameters of many-body potentials for Co, Nb and Zr metals, based on the embedded-atom method, have been systematically derived. The analytical potential scheme allows us to reproduce correctly the cohesive energies and structural…
