Thesis title: Optical and Structural Properties of Metallic Glasses and Composites

Thesis synopsis: High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are alloys consisting of five or more principal elements at equimolar ratios, developed by Prof. Yeh in the early 2000s. These alloys are desired due to their comprehensive mechanical and chemical properties, such as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and thermostability. Even though HEAs are studied extensively for their applications, the fundamental properties of HEAs remain largely unexplored. The most common studies are on their characterisation and investigation on their grain or crystal structures. However, studies on their elemental connectivity are still lacking. Hsin-Hui’s project aims to understand the fundamentals of HEAs with the help of X-ray and THz spectroscopy methods as well as synchrotron and free-electron laser facilities. Through her studies, we aim to gain fundamental knowledge of the relation between elemental connectivity and their mechanical or chemical properties. This is helpful for future HEAs design.
