Implication

Predictive models demonstrate phase formation in high-entropy diborides, suggesting enhanced material properties.

Abstract

High-entropy diborides ceramics (HEB) have exhibited versatile properties. Yet, the single-phase HEB is supposedly rare, consequently robust prediction of such HEB formation is rather daunting owning to the vast element...
