Two-dimensional high entropy alloys and ceramics
“Entropy engineering” recently had exceptional impact on bulk materials science by invention of bul“Entropy engineering” recently had exceptional impact on bulk materials science by invention of bulk high entropy alloys and ceramics. The underlying idea is that by equiatomically adding ≥5 principal elements to alloys/compounds, the much increased configurational entropy stabilizes otherwise non-accessible single “high entropy” phases with an unique random elemental occupancy on a crystalline lattice and hence novel functional properties. Likewise, reducing dimensionality in “two-dimensional” (2D) materials recently had exceptional impact on materials science due to the 2D materials’ unique…
