Research on high-entropy alloys

Yeh first conceived the idea for high-entropy alloys in 1995.^[4] Yeh led his first research group on the subject in 2001 funded by the National Science Council of Taiwan. That research group published several papers in 2004^[5] and a review in 2020.^[6] Notably, the early work was soon after Brian Cantor released some of his foundational work.^[6][7]
