High-entropy ceramics: Synthesis, properties, and applications
High-entropy ceramics (HECs) embrace compositional complexity and configurational entropy to reinvent the science of traditional ceramic design. They display high thermal, mechanical, electrical, and chemical resilience and, to achieve this incredible feat, incorporate four or more elements in near-equiatomic ratios to...

Rational Synthesis and Structure Control of High-Entropy Spinel Oxides
High-entropy oxides (HEOs) are a new class of complex solid solutions, containing five or more distinct metal cations in a single crystallographic site. HEO spinels are promising for a wide range of energy applications, such as catalysis and magnetic applications due to their high chemical flexibility. However, achie...
