Abstract
Highlights
This work employs a configurational-entropy control strategy to progressively enhance lattice distortion in multi-principal element alloys, thereby reconstructing their electronic structure and balancing electromagnetic parameters under high electromagnetic loss.
Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that entropy-induced lattice distortion further drives asymmetric electron cloud reconstruction, thus forming numerous dipolar polarization centers, which enhances low-frequency dielectric attenuation of high-entropy alloy (HEA).
HEA exhibits excellent low-frequency electromagnetic absorption, radar stealth, and corrosion resistance, while metamaterial structural design further broadens its absorption bandwidth.
期刊介绍:
Nano-Micro Letters is a peer-reviewed, international, interdisciplinary, and open-access journal published under the SpringerOpen brand.
Nano-Micro Letters focuses on the science, experiments, engineering, technologies, and applications of nano- or microscale structures and systems in various fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, material science, and pharmacy.It also explores the expanding interfaces between these fields.
Nano-Micro Letters particularly emphasizes the bottom-up approach in the length scale from nano to micro. This approach is crucial for achieving industrial applications in nanotechnology, as it involves the assembly, modification, and control of nanostructures on a microscale.
