Abstract

High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide The role of anharmonic effects on the phase stability of VNbMoTaW high-entropy alloy (HEA) is evaluated by extensive ab initio molecular dynamics simulations (AIMD) combined with the phonon quasiparticle theory. We find that the anharmonic effects have a positive effect on the phase stability of the HEAs. The study of subsystem alloys reveals that the strong interactions between W and Nb or Ta promote positive contributions of anharmonic effects. Further studies also reveal that the anharmonic effects are an important driving factor of the ordered B2(MoW, TaNb) phase transformation. These findings provide novel insights into the phase stability of HEAs.
