Covering basic research as well as real-world applications, this introduction to complex metallic alloys (CMAs) treats everything from atomistic details to surface processing.
Complex metal alloys (CMAs) comprise a huge group of largely unknown alloys and compounds, where many phases are formed with crystal structures based on giant unit cells containing atom clusters, ranging from tens of to more than thousand atoms per unit cell. In these phases, fo…
