Abstract
High-/medium-entropy alloys (H/MEAs) have attracted attention for their excellent mechanical properties. According to first-principles calculations, the atomic displacements from their lattice points are element-dependent and correlated with the yield strength of H/MEAs. To investigate experimentally the element dependence of the local structure, we measured the extended x-ray absorption fine structure in seven kinds of face-centered cubic H/MEAs consisting of 3d transition metal elements. Our experimental results indicate that the local disorder around chromium (Cr) is larger than that around other elements, which is a common feature in all the measured fcc H/MEAs, aligning with prior theoretical studies indicating larger displacements of Cr in comparison to other elements. We discuss the mechanism underlying the local structural disorder induced by the constituent element Cr.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
