Challenges and Strategies for Synthesizing High Performance Micro and Nanoscale High Entropy Oxide Materials

Abstract

AbstractHigh‐entropy oxide micro/nano materials (HEO MNMs) have shown broad application prospects and have become hot materials in recent years. This review comprehensively provides an overview of the latest developments and covers key aspects of HEO MNMs, by discussing design principles, computer‐aided structural design, synthesis challenges and strategies, as well as application areas. The analysis of the synthesis process includes the role of high‐throughput process in large‐scale synthesis of HEOs MNMs, along with the effects of temperature elevation and undercooling on the formation of HEO MNMs. Additionally, the article summarizes the application of high‐precision and in situ characterization devices in the field of HEO MNMs, offering robust support for related research. Finally, a brief introduction to the main applications of HEO MNMs is provided, emphasizing their key performances. This review offers valuable guidance for future research on HEO MNMs, outlining critical issues and challenges in the current field.
