Figure 1 Schematic illustration of the model of the simplest type defect in multi-component alloys such as High Entropy alloys (HEAs) [4,8]

High-Entropy Alloys (HEAs) consists of multi-component materials with an approximately equiatomic ratio of components [1-3]. These alloys have a high entropy of mixing, which distinguishes them from conventional alloys. Solid solutions with multi-principal elements have generally been found to be more stable than intermetallic compounds at elevated temperatures because of their large entropies of mixing. Some researchers have defined a HE material as one that has at least five principal elements, each of which has an atomic concentration between 5% and 35%.
Multi-component alloys with equiatomic compositions, such as HEAs, have a potential to possess superior phase stability against irradiation damage because of the special defect structure and/or particular atomic level stress [4,5]. We investigate the irardiation damage in multi-component equimolar alloys (MEAs) and HEAs because these materials may be a new type of nuclear material that do not show irradiation damage problems because of faster irradiation damage annihilation and/or evaluation processes compared to conventional crystalline materials [6-8].

Figure 1 Solid state amorphization in High Entropy alloys (HEAs) by fast electron irradiation [6]

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been developed as a new class of structural materials. Mixing of various elements typically results in high atomic-level stresses and particular defects that lead to the possibility of achieving high irradiation resistances through unique damage healing mechanisms [1]. The preliminary experimental results obtained from high-voltage electron microscopy (HVEM) focus on irradiation damage in various equiatomic multicomponent alloys and HEAs [2-6], and demonstrated that the ZrNbHf, CoCrFeNi and TiNbTaZr alloys, and the CoCrCuFeNi, Al0.3CoCrFeNi, and TiNbTaZrV HEAs remain in the solid solution under fast electron irradiation; on the other hand, the HEA Al0.5TiZrPdCuNi exhibited solid-state amorphization (SSA) [6].
