Interstitial diffusion is a pivotal process that governs the phase stability and irradiation response of materials in non-equilibrium conditions. In this work, we study sluggish and chemically-biased interstitial diffusion in Fe-Ni…
Under plastic flow, multi-element high/medium-entropy alloys (HEAs/MEAs) commonly exhibit complex intermittent and collective dislocation dynamics owing to inherent lattice distortion and atomic-level chemical complexities. Using atomistic…
The vacancy concentration at finite temperatures is studied for a series of (CoCrFeMn)$_{1-x_\mathrm{Ni}}$Ni$_{x_\mathrm{Ni}}$ alloys by grand-canonical Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations. The vacancy formation energies are calculated from a…
The alleged existence of sluggish diffusion in high entropy alloys has drawn controversy. In high entropy alloys, and in general in all solids, transport properties are controlled by point defect concentration, which must be known before…
The diffusion kinetics in a CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy is investigated by a combined radiotracer--interdiffusion experiment applied to a pseudo-binary Co$_{15}$Cr$_{20}$Fe$_{20}$Mn$_{20}$Ni$_{25}$ /…
Tracer diffusion of all constituting elements is studied at various temperatures in a series of (CoCrFeMn)$_{100-x}$Ni$_x$ alloys with compositions ranging from pure Ni to the equiatomic CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy. At a given homologous…
High-entropy alloys are an intriguing new class of metallic materials that derive their properties from being multi-element systems that can crystallize as a single phase, despite containing high concentrations of five or more elements with…
An equimolar NiCoFeCrGa high entropy alloy having dual-phase homogeneous components was studied, where the constituent phases exhibit distinct mechanical properties. Micropillars with various diameters were created from two differently heat…
The superior properties of high-entropy multi-functional materials are strongly connected with their atomic heterogeneity through many different local atomic interactions. The detailed element-specific studies on a local scale can provide…
The bulk quaternary equiatomic CoCrFeNi alloy is studied extensively in literature. Under experimental conditions, it shows a single-phase fcc structure and its physical and mechanical properties are similar to those of the quinary…
This thesis is a theoretical study of thermodynamic, point-defect formation and diffusion properties in Fe-Ni alloys with a focus on the magnetochemical effects. The results are derived from density functional theory (DFT) calculations and…
Many of the purported virtues of Multi-Principal Element Alloys (MPEAs), such as corrosion, high-temperature oxidation and irradiation resistance, are highly sensitive to vacancy diffusivity. Similarly, solute interdiffusion is governed by…
Although the equilibrium composition of many alloy surfaces is well understood, the rate of transient surface segregation during annealing is not known, despite its crucial effect on alloy corrosion and catalytic reactions occurring on…
Iron based industrial steels typically contain a large number of alloying elements, even so-called low alloyed steels. Under irradiation, these alloying elements form clusters that have a detrimental impact of the mechanical properties of…
Quantum critical behavior has been associated with some of the most exotic emergent states of matter including high-temperature superconductivity. Much of the research into quantum critical point (QCP) physics has been hampered by the lack…
High-entropy alloys (HEA) form solid solutions with large chemical disorder and excellent mechanical properties. We investigate the origin of HEA strengthening in face-centered cubic (FCC) single-phase HEAs through molecular dynamics…
The mobility of both Fe and Ni atoms in ferromagnetic Fe$_x$Ni$_{1-x}$ alloys ($0.4 \leq x \leq 0.6$) is investigated within the framework of ab initio electronic structure calculations, using the nudged elastic band (NEB) method to…
Recently developed single-phase concentrated solid-solution alloys (CSAs) contain multiple elemental species in high concentrations with different elements randomly arranged on a crystalline lattice. These chemically disordered materials…
L12 precipitates are known to significantly enhance the strength and ductility of single-phase face-centered cubic (FCC) medium- or high-entropy alloys (M/HEAs). However, further improvements in mechanical properties remain untapped, as…
