Tailoring the structure and properties of materials using the high-entropy (HE) effect is of significant interest in the fields of environmental and thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). In this work, a new class of dense HE rare-earth niobates was successfully prepared by a solid-phase reaction method, including (Sm
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
