C and N doping in high-entropy alloys: A pathway to achieve desired strength-ductility synergy

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted great attention because they provide diversified possibilities for obtaining many exceptional properties. They are expected to serve as structural materials in the fields of industry, aerospace, biomedical science and so on. Therefore, it is desirable to simultaneously attain high strength and good ductility in those alloys. Interstitial alloying has been recognized as a powerful and economic approach to...
