New Strategy for Extending Ductility in a Single-phase Alloy

Caption

A. Multilevel heterogeneous structure of single-phase CrCoNi medium entropy alloy after tensile test: Micrometer-sized grains (white), submicron grains (blue), nanograins (colored). Nanograin forms at grain boundaries of submicron grains. B. Tensile properties. C. Normalized work hardening rate. D. Combination of yield strength and uniform elongation.
