Using liquid metals to synthesize high-entropy alloy nanoparticles

A team of chemists and engineers affiliated with a large number of institutions in China has found that using liquid metal to synthesize high-entropy alloy nanoparticles (HEA-NPs) is a viable alternative to conventional methods. In their study, reported in the journal Nature, the group attempted to create a variety of HEA-NPs using liquid metals. The editors at Nature have published a Research Briefing in the same journal issue outlining the work.
