Abstract

En 中文
Alloying W with Re is an effective method for improving its intrinsic ductility. The solubility limit of Re in W is similar to 27% at 851 K. However, this alloy possesses a high enthalpy of formation, which can result in phase-instability. Configurational entropy alone cannot stabilize this alloy as a single-phase solid solution. Recent research questions the importance of configurational entropy in determining the single-phase stability of complex, concentrated solid solutions and suggests that vibrational entropy may play a critical role. The question arises: Can vibrational entropy contribute significantly enough to ensure single-phase stability in a binary alloy? Our first-principles phonon calculations using density functional theory demonstrate that vibrational entropy is equally essential as the configurational entropy in promoting the formation of a single-phase solid solution in WRe binary alloys. This finding necessitates revisiting the role of vibrational entropy in the single-phase stability of binary alloys.
