Short-range order (SRO) in multicomponent concentrated alloys affects their mechanical response. Hence, is paramount to understand how composition modifies the chemical ordering in the system to design materials with optimal properties. We present here a methodology to predict the SRO and thermodynamic properties in chemically complex systems and a…

In this study, we compare the formation of radiation induced defects in W and W-Re-Os alloys, exposed to an equivalent dose of self-ion and neutron irradiation. Transmutation reactions in the neutron irradiated material are simulated in the ion implanted materials by alloying with representative quantities of Re and Os (1.4 and 0.1 at.% respecti…

We present a Density Functional Theory-based cluster expansion model to predict the configurational energy of a multicomponent W-Ta-Cr-V-Hf quinary alloy. Coupled with Monte Carlo simulations we show that the model reproduces experimental observations. We analyze the thermodynamic properties of the W.31Ta.34Cr.05V.27Hf.03 system and observe two ph…

A novel W-based refractory high entropy alloy with outstanding radiation resistance has been developed. The alloy was grown as thin films showing a bimodal grain size distribution in the nanocrystalline and ultrafine regimes and a unique 4 nm lamella-like structure revealed by atom probe tomography (APT). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and …
