Interstitial atoms enable joint twinning and transformation induced plasticity in strong and ductile high-entropy alloys

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) consisting of multiple principle elements provide an avenue for realizing exceptional mechanical, physical and chemical properties. We report a novel strategy for designing a new class of HEAs incorporating the additional interstitial element carbon. This results in joint...
