Short-range order in the CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy from cluster expansion

Wei Chen, Gian-Marco Rignanese, Geoffroy Hautier

We investigate the short-range order (SRO) and phase stability of the equiatomic CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy using cluster expansion supplemented by an eigen-decomposition analys…
