High-Entropy Columbites: Structure, Optical and Electrical Properties
摘要
A high-entropy compound (Mg0.2Zn0.2Ni0.2Co0.2Mn0.2)Nb2O6 with the columbite structure and its Ti-substituted (5%) composition were synthesized for the first time. The synthesis was carried out using a modified method of solution combustion followed by high-temperature sintering. The samples were examined using the methods of X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The band gap of direct electronic transition (
