Synthetic approach design and element characterizations of HEA-NPs. (a) Flow diagram of the V.P. strategy and high-entropy-driven process for obtaining HEA-NPs from metals with different vapor pressure. TEM-EDS maps of (b) phase separation nanoparticles (ZnCdPbBi and AgInMnSn), (c) 9-HEA-NPs (FeCoNiCrYTiVCuAl), (d) 13-HEA-NPs (FeCoNiCrYTiVCuAlNbMoTaW) and (e) 17-HEA-NPs (FeCoNiCrYTiVCuAlNbMoTaWAgInMnSn), respectively. Scale bars: 50 nm. (f) Calculation results of the mixing entropy of different HEA-NPs based on ICP-OES results, indicating that the mixing entropy is increased along with the enhancement of composited elements.
