Abstract

Paracrystalline state achieved in the diamond system guides a direction to explore the missing link between amorphous and crystalline states. However, such a state is still challenging to reach in alloy systems in a controlled manner. Here, based on the vast composition space and the complex atomic interactions in the high-entropy alloys (HEAs), we present an “atomic-level tailoring” strategy to create the paracrystalline HEA. The addition of atomic-level Pt with the large and negative mixing enthalpy induces the local atomic reshuffling around Pt atoms for the well-targeted local amorphization, which separates severe-distorted crystalline Zr-Nb-Hf-Ta-Mo HEA into the high-density crystalline MRO motifs on atomic-level. The paracrystalline HEA exhibits high hardness (16.6 GPa) and high yield strength (8.37 GPa) and deforms by nanoscale shear-banding and nanocrystallization modes. Such an enthalpy-guided strategy in HEAs can provide the atomic-level tailoring ability to purposefully regulate structural characteristics and desirable properties.
