Materials Research on Superconducting or Magnetic High-Entropy Alloys

Abstract

The high-entropy alloys (HEAs) receive much attention due to their superior mechanical properties, high corrosion resistance, enhanced thermoelectric properties, and so on. Superconducting or magnetic HEAs also show interesting properties. In superconducting HEAs, the robustness of superconductivity against extremely high-pressure or magnetism is reported. For magnetic HEAs, tailoring magnetic properties by changing the microstructure recently attracts much attention. In this article, we introduce materials research on superconducting or magnetic HEAs. The perspectives relating to high-pressure physics are also mentioned.
