Rooted in the thermodynamic concept of entropy, high-entropy materials, originally exemplified by high-entropy alloys, have demonstrated enhanced structural stability and advanced electrochemical performance through the synergistic integration of multiple components.

In this study, we propose an entropy-assisted multi-element doping strategy to mitigate these issues. Specifically, two routes are designed and compared: bulk-like localized high-entropy doping (BHE-NCM) and surface-distributed high-entropy-zone doping (SHE-NCM). The surface entropy-doped NCM cathode delivers enhanced electrochemical performance, including higher capacity retention under 4.5 V cycling and superior rate capability, compared to both bulk-like and pristine counterparts. Comprehensive material characterization reveals that surface-localized doping stabilizes the layered structure with reduced microcrack formation and creates a uniform dopant-rich surface region with improved thermal and electrochemical stability. Overall, entropy-assisted doping at the near surface zone effectively alleviates structural degradation and interface reactions in Ni-rich NCM, enabling improved cycling performance at high voltage.
