Entropy enhancing toughness of diborides: First-principles insights and experimental validation

The intrinsically low toughness and high brittleness of diboride ceramics are major limitations restricting their widespread application. Toughness can be enhanced through increased configurational entropy; however, the physical mechanisms underpinning this entropy-induced toughening remain poorly u...
