Abstract
The field of high entropy alloys has exploded in its first 10 years. Vast opportunities for new compositions and microstructures are offered by this idea, but current efforts have become surprisingly focused on a narrow set of systems and on the search for single phase solid solution alloys. This perspective outlines the challenge to re-engage the full range of compositional and microstructural complexity in the search for new structural metals. We draw on extensive experience in the development of exquisite multiphase microstructures and define new high throughput experiments and computations that must be integrated to respond to this challenge. Broadening the scope is expected to provide dramatic new opportunities in the field of complex concentrated alloys.
