Thermal stability of high-entropy nanoalloys: reality or chimera?

Jan 11, 2025 | MEANS, MPQ

By studying at the atomic scale the thermal behavior of nanoparticles composed of gold, cobalt, copper, nickel and platinum, scientists have revealed that the stability of these so-called high-entropy nanoalloys is much lower than expected, as gold and copper...
