Abstract:
The cell structures and mechanical properties (i.e., hardness, Young's modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson's ratio) of (Hf0.2Zr0.2Ti0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)C (HEC) and (Hf0.2Zr0.2Ti0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)N (HEN) high-entropy ceramics were simulated by special quasi-random structure (SQS) and general random structure (GRS) with atomic occupation preference based on the first-principles density functional theory. The results show that compared to SQS, the cell structure constructed by GRS is more realistic, which is verified via scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The mechanical properties simulated by GRS were also determined by microhardness and dynamic elastic modulus testers. The hardness, Young's modulus,shear modulus and Poisson's ratio predicted by GRS are 23.07 GPa, 449.71 GPa, 183.28 and 0.227 for HEC and 22.96 GPa, 413.71 GPa, 162.47 and 0.241 for HEN, which are in a reasonable agreement with the measured results (i.e., 22.05 ± 0.32 GPa, 433 ± 12 GPa, 172 ± 18 GPa, 0.21 for HEC and 22.12 ± 0.13 GPa, 372 ± 23 GPa, 158 ± 11 GPa, 0.23 for HEN). This work can provide a promising reference for preparing high-entropy non-oxide ceramics via the prediction. © 2024 The Authors
