Structural and electronic transport properties of Zn- and Ga-doped Bi2− x Sb x Te3− y Se y topological insulator single crystals

A comprehensive study of structural and magnetotransport properties of pristine Bi2−x Sb x Te3−y Se y (BSTS) single crystals and doped with Zn (BSTS:Zn) and Ga (BSTS:Ga) are presented here. Magnetic field dependent Hall resistivities of the single crystals indicate that the holes are the majority carriers. The field dependent resistivity curves at different temperatures of the crystals display cusp-like characteristics at low magnetic fields, attributed to two-dimensional (2D) weak antilocalization (WAL) effect. We fit the observed low-field WAL effects at low temperatures using 2D and three-dimensional (3D) Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka (HLN) equations. The 2D HLN equation fits the data more closely than the 3D HLN equation, indicating a 2D nature. The 2D HLN equation fit to the low field WAL effects at various temperatures reveal a phase coherence length (l φ) that decreases as temperature increases. The variation of l φ with temperature follows T −0.41 power law for BSTS:Zn, suggesting that the dominant dephasing mechanism is a 2D electron–electron (e−e) interactions. For pristine BSTS and BSTS:Ga, l φ(T) is described by considering a coexistence of 2D e−e and electron–phonon (e−p) interactions in the single crystals. The temperature variation of the longitudinal resistance in BSTS:Ga is described by 3D Mott variable range hoping model. In contrast, the transport mechanisms of both pristine BSTS and BSTS:Zn are described by a combination of 2D WAL/EEI models and 3D WAL.

Optical-pulse-based reconfigurable phase control for independent beamforming and band fusion in a dual-band phased array receiver

This Letter proposes an optical-pulse-based reconfigurable phase control method, enabling a dual-band phased array receiver to operate in two modes: dual-band-independent operation and dual-band fusion. The method utilizes optical pulses and optical delay to compensate for phase differences across frequency bands. An electrical phase shifter is employed to compensate for phase residual in both bands. All phase operations to both bands are processed concurrently in one link, thereby maintaining inter-band phase coherence. Experimental results verify the ability of dual-band-independent beamforming and inter-band phase coherence maintaining. A four-channel dual-band (X- and Ku-band) phased array antenna (PAA) receiver is constructed to measure PAA patterns and demonstrate band fusion. The pulse compression results in all directions reveal a doubled improvement in range resolution, which shows the potential for enhancement of radar performance.

Age-dependent coupling characteristics of bilateral frontal EEG during desflurane anesthesia.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the age dependence of bilateral frontal electroencephalogram coupling characteristics, and find potential age-independent depth of anesthesia monitoring indicators for the elderlies.&#xD;Approach: We recorded bilateral forehead EEG data from 41 patients (ranged in 19-82 years old), and separated into three age groups: 18-40 years (n = 12); 40-65 years (n = 14), > 65 years (n = 15). All these patients underwent desflurane maintained general anesthesia. We analyzed the age-related EEG spectra, phase amplitude coupling (PAC), coherence and phase lag index (PLI) of EEG data in the states of awake, general anesthesia (GA), and recovery. &#xD;Main results: The frontal alpha power shows age dependence in the state of GA maintained by desflurane. Modulation index (MI) in slow oscillation-alpha and delta-alpha bands showed age dependence and state dependence in varying degrees, the PAC pattern also became less pronounced with increasing age. In the awake state, the coherence in delta, theta and alpha frequency bands were all significantly higher in the > 65 years age group than in the 18-40 years age group (p < 0.05 for three frequency bands). The coherence in alpha-band was significantly enhanced in all age groups in GA (p < 0.01) and then decreased in recovery state. Notably, the PLI in the alpha band was able to significantly distinguish the three states of awake, GA and recovery (p < 0.01) and the results of PLI in delta and theta frequency bands had similar changes to those of coherence. &#xD;Significance: We found the EEG coupling and synchronization between bilateral forehead are age-dependent. The PAC, coherence and PLI portray this age-dependence. The PLI and coherence based on bilateral frontal EEG functional connectivity measures and PAC based on frontal single-channel are closely associated with anesthesia-induced unconsciousness.&#xD.

Integrated Electro‐Optic Frequency Combs: Theory and Current Progress

AbstractOptical frequency combs (OFCs) have evolved into one of the most active areas of photonics, underpinning advancements in both fundamental science and commercial contexts. Electro‐optic modulation for OFC generation offers excellent versatility, stability, and phase coherence. With the rapid progress in micro‐nano fabrication techniques, electro‐optic frequency combs (EOFCs) have been realized on many integrated platforms, including silicon on insulator (SOI), indium phosphide (InP), and lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI). These compact, low‐cost, and energy‐efficient EOFCs support a wide range of applications. In this study, we review the theory for the generation of integrated EOFCs, summarize the demonstrations on the main integrated platforms, present applications, and envision the development directions of integrated EOFCs in view of materials, devices, and applications.

Additively manufactured ultrastrong Al-containing austenitic stainless steels via engineering cellular structure with multi-nanoprecipitates

High-performance austenitic stainless steel with ultrahigh strength is in strong demand across various industries. However, traditional austenitic stainless steels generally exhibit lower strength, particularly at elevated temperatures. In this contribution, an austenitic stainless steel with ultrahigh strength from ambient temperature to elevated temperature was successfully fabricated via laser additive manufacturing. This achievement is realized by engineering incoherent and coherent multi-nanoprecipitates via cellular structure in austenite, including the co-precipitation of incoherent precipitates of Laves phase, B2 phase and Cr-rich α′ phase at the cellular walls and coherent L12 phase within the cellular structure. The cellular dislocation networks in austenite introduce high density incoherent Laves phase within grains by providing massive nucleation sites, followed by the successive formation of B2 phase and Cr-rich α′ phase around the Laves phase. The high density incoherent precipitates within austenite grains not only substantially strengthen the matrix at ambient temperature, but also contribute to the superior strength at elevated temperature significantly through interacting with dislocations and nano SFs. In addition, the co-precipitation structure substantially improves thermal stability of Laves phase. This work provides a methodology for engineering multi-nanoprecipitates via cellular structure to fabricate austenitic stainless steel with superior performance.

Phase transformation and strengthening of the gas-atomized FeCoCrNiMo0.5Al1.3 high-entropy alloy powder during annealing

Phase evolution and strengthening of the FeNiCoCrMo0.5Al1.3 powder alloy produced via inert gas atomization and annealed in the temperature interval of 300–800 °C have been studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and microhardness testing. It was found that annealing at 300–600 °C leads to an increase of the element segregations between the several solid solutions with a rise of the lattice misfit (ε) to 1.5 % and microhardness growth to 1070 HV. It was assumed that elastic stress caused by the element partitioning is the main strengthening mechanism: microhardness rises linearly with misfit rise with dHV/dε = 43400 MPa. Sigma arises after the maximum elastic deformation (in 1.5 %) was reached. Formation of the dispersed coherent sigma phase in the annealing interval 600–800 °C results in the microhardness rise. Oxidation that began at 800 °C in 27 h is accompanied with FCC formation due to a depletion of the B2 in Al caused by Al2O3 formation. Estimation of the activation energy of the initial stage of the solid solution decomposition gives a very low value in 0.65eV, apparently caused by the high concentration of quenched vacancies. The activation energy of sigma formation approximately coincides with the activation energy of self-diffusion in BCC metals (about 2.60 eV).

Phenotypic analysis of multielectrode array EEG biomarkers in developing and adult male Fmr1 KO mice

Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a leading known genetic cause of intellectual disability with symptoms that include increased anxiety and social and sensory processing deficits. Recent electroencephalographic (EEG) studies in humans with FXS have identified neural oscillation deficits that include increased resting state gamma power, increased amplitude of auditory evoked potentials, and reduced phase locking of sound-evoked gamma oscillations. Similar EEG phenotypes are present in mouse models of FXS, but very little is known about the development of such abnormal responses. In the current study, we employed a 30-channel mouse multielectrode array (MEA) system to record and analyze resting and stimulus-evoked EEG signals in male P21 and P91 WT and Fmr1 KO mice. This led to several novel findings. First, P91, but not P21, Fmr1 KO mice have significantly increased resting EEG power in the low- and high-gamma frequency bands. Second, both P21 and P91 Fmr1 KO mice have markedly attenuated inter-trial phase coherence (ITPC) to spectrotemporally dynamic auditory stimuli as well as to 40 Hz and 80 Hz auditory steady-state response (ASSR) stimuli. This suggests abnormal temporal processing from early development that may lead to abnormal speech and language function in FXS. Third, we found hemispheric asymmetry of fast temporal processing in the mouse auditory cortex in WT but not Fmr1 KO mice. Together, these findings define a set of EEG phenotypes in young and adult mice that can serve as translational targets for genetic and pharmacological manipulation in phenotypic rescue studies.

Charge transport in n-type As- and Sb-hyperdoped Ge

This paper presents a systematic study of the charge transport behavior of heavily doped n-type Ge layers with As and Sb. A nonequilibrium method ion implantation followed by milliseconds flash lamp annealing is applied to synthesize the n++ Ge layers (Ge:As and Ge:Sb). The resulting materials contain free electrons with a density above 3 × 1019 cm−3 and mobility more than 220 cm2/(V s). Quantum corrections to the conductance in a magnetic field are observed at low temperatures. Weak localization persists up to 30 K in Ge:Sb, while only up to 10 K in Ge:As. Using the Hikami–Larkin–Nagaoka model to fit the magnetoconductance data, we obtain the phase coherence length lϕ of the hyperdoped Ge samples in the range of 70–163 nm. This study may pave a way to explore possible applications for quantum technologies utilizing As- and Sb-hyperdoped Ge.

Exploring inter-trial coherence for inner speech classification in EEG-based brain–computer interface

Objective. In recent years, electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) applied to inner speech classification have gathered attention for their potential to provide a communication channel for individuals with speech disabilities. However, existing methodologies for this task fall short in achieving acceptable accuracy for real-life implementation. This paper concentrated on exploring the possibility of using inter-trial coherence (ITC) as a feature extraction technique to enhance inner speech classification accuracy in EEG-based BCIs. Approach. To address the objective, this work presents a novel methodology that employs ITC for feature extraction within a complex Morlet time-frequency representation. The study involves a dataset comprising EEG recordings of four different words for ten subjects, with three recording sessions per subject. The extracted features are then classified using k-nearest-neighbors (kNNs) and support vector machine (SVM). Main results. The average classification accuracy achieved using the proposed methodology is 56.08% for kNN and 59.55% for SVM. These results demonstrate comparable or superior performance in comparison to previous works. The exploration of inter-trial phase coherence as a feature extraction technique proves promising for enhancing accuracy in inner speech classification within EEG-based BCIs. Significance. This study contributes to the advancement of EEG-based BCIs for inner speech classification by introducing a feature extraction methodology using ITC. The obtained results, on par or superior to previous works, highlight the potential significance of this approach in improving the accuracy of BCI systems. The exploration of this technique lays the groundwork for further research toward inner speech decoding.

Strengthening mechanism and interaction between nano precipitates and defects in wrought Mg-5Li-1Zn-0.5Ag-0.5Zr-xGd alloys

Mg-5Li-1Zn-0.5Ag-0.5Zr-xGd (x = 2.4, 6) alloys were subjected to multi-directional forging (MDF). The β1 coherent phase and β incoherent phase precipitated during the MDF process significantly improve the properties of the alloy. The results show that the orientation relationship between the β1 phase and the matrix is 022β1∥0002α and 111β1∥12¯10α.When the dislocations cut through the β1 phase, the {111} 〈110〉 slip system of the β1 phases is activated, forming anti-phase boundaries (APBs) by directional motion in the <110> direction, which provides strengthening effects. The APB structure leads to the increase of system energy, deformation resistance, and yield strength. Besides, the activation of the β1 phases slip system makes the alloys exhibit satisfactory plasticity and toughness. After MDF at 350 °C, Mg-5Li-1Zn-0.5Ag-0.5Zr-2.4Gd alloy has a yield strength of 270 MPa, a tensile strength of 295 MPa, and an elongation of 12.7%, respectively. The results are beneficial for the design and manufacture of high-performance MgLi alloys.

What Is the "Hydrogen Bond"? A QFT-QED Perspective.

In this paper we would like to highlight the problems of conceiving the "Hydrogen Bond" (HB) as a real short-range, directional, electrostatic, attractive interaction and to reframe its nature through the non-approximated view of condensed matter offered by a Quantum Electro-Dynamic (QED) perspective. We focus our attention on water, as the paramount case to show the effectiveness of this 40-year-old theoretical background, which represents water as a two-fluid system (where one of the two phases is coherent). The HB turns out to be the result of the electromagnetic field gradient in the coherent phase of water, whose vacuum level is lower than in the non-coherent (gas-like) fraction. In this way, the HB can be properly considered, i.e., no longer as a "dipolar force" between molecules, but as the phenomenological effect of their collective thermodynamic tendency to occupy a lower ground state, compatible with temperature and pressure. This perspective allows to explain many "anomalous" behaviours of water and to understand why the calculated energy associated with the HB should change when considering two molecules (water-dimer), or the liquid state, or the different types of ice. The appearance of a condensed, liquid, phase at room temperature is indeed the consequence of the boson condensation as described in the context of spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB). For a more realistic and authentic description of water, condensed matter and living systems, the transition from a still semi-classical Quantum Mechanical (QM) view in the first quantization to a Quantum Field Theory (QFT) view embedded in the second quantization is advocated.

Blood cell characterization based on deep learning and diffraction phase microscopy

Quantitative characterization of blood cells is very important for medical diagnosis and life science research. This study presents a novel label-free and high-throughput approach for analyzing flowing blood cells in a microfluidic channel by combining deep learning with partially coherent illumination-based diffraction phase microscopy (PCI-DPM). Diluted blood was injected into a microchannel and imaged with PCI-DPM, yielding high-contrast phase images for the blood cells. A modified YOLOv5-s neural network was used to perform automatic identification and analysis of blood cells in the phase image of PCI-DPM, revealing the diameter, dry mass, volumetric density, and speed of blood cells precisely. The proposed approach allows quick and accurate assessment of blood samples, providing valuable insights for patients in different pathological states, such as hematological disorders and infections.

A statistical analysis of causal decomposition methods applied to Earth system time series

Causal Decomposition (CD) constitutes a novel and widely accepted method for discovering and quantifying the internal causal relationships inherent to complex systems. This new causality bases not on time nor state. Instead, it relies on instantaneous phase coherence between the corresponding Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) of the signals, obtained via Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD). In this paper we compare the results obtained with two noise-assisted methods: Ensemble EMD (EEMD) and Noise Assisted Multivariate EMD (NA-MEMD). Given the inherent stochastic nature of noise-assisted methods, CD was treated as a randomized experiment. Hence, we repeated procedures to perform a robust statistical analysis. Confidence intervals, adequate normality conditions and differential causality hypothesis testing were then evaluated. The methodology was adjusted through the paradigmatic case of a forced mechanical oscillator, since the causal implications are known in advance. CD was then applied to a couple of series from the Earth system: insolation and oxygen isotope rate. Differential causality was established in favor of insolation at the frequency corresponding to the obliquity cycle. The apparent causality detected with EEMD on other time scales was discarded and attributed to a mode mixing problem. Therefore, NA-MEMD outperformed EEMD with less mode mixing and sharper mode alignment.

In-situ solid-state deformation-driven rapid reaction towards higher strength-ductility Al-CuO composites

The strength-ductility dilemma of metallic matrix composites is mainly attributed to the mismatched phase/matrix interfaces, which induce stress concentration as dislocation piles up. Here, coherent nano-Al2O3 phases were in-situ formed in Al-CuO composites via rapid diffusion of neoteric deformation-driven metallurgy. The complex dislocation configuration was also promoted to induce the formation of about 14.5 % incoherent twin boundaries. The mean free path for dislocation movements was expanded, as dislocations could cut through the coherent nano-Al2O3 phases and interact with the incoherent twin boundaries without piled-up dislocations. The yield strength and elongation of the strength-ductility synergy Al-5CuO composites were 201 ± 14 MPa and 16.1 ± 0.5 %, indicating that in-situ Al2O3-Al coherent interface and incoherent twin boundaries exert remarkable ability of dislocation transmission.

Coherent Phase Change in Interstitial Solutions: A Hierarchy of Instabilities.

Metal hydrides or lithium ion battery electrodes can take the form of interstitial solid solutions with a miscibility gap. This work discusses theory approaches for locating, in temperature-composition space, coherent phase transformations during the charging/discharging of such systems and for identifying the associated transformation mechanisms. The focus is on the simplest scenario, where instabilities derive from the thermodynamics of the bulk phase alone, considering strain energy as the foremost consequence of coherency and admitting for stress relaxation at free surfaces. The extension of the approach to include capillarity is demonstrated by an example. The analysis rests on constrained equilibrium phase diagrams that are informed by geometry- and dimensionality-specific mechanical boundary conditions and on elastic instabilities-again geometry-specific-as implied by the theory of open-system elasticity. It is demonstrated that some scenarios afford the analysis of chemical stability to be based entirely on a linear stability analysis of the mechanical equilibrium, which provides closed-form solutions in a straightforward manner. Attention is on the impact of the system geometry (infinitely extended or of finite size) and on the chemical (closed or open system) and mechanical (incoherent or coherent) boundary conditions. Transformation mechanism maps are suggested for documenting the findings. The maps reveal a hierarchy of instabilities, which depend strongly on each of the above characteristics. Specifically, realistic, finite-sized systems differ qualitatively from idealized systems of infinite extension. Among the transformation mechanisms exposed by the analysis are a uniform switchover to the other phase when the open system reaches its chemical spinodal, practical coherent nucleation, as well as chemo-elastically coupled spontaneous buckling modes, which may take the form of either, single-phase or dual-phasestates.

Passive leg raising modulates low-frequency oscillation propagation in peripheral atherosclerosis: A pilot study.

Low-frequency oscillations (LFOs) observed in the periphery may reflect physiological processes. The aim of this study was to investigate these processes' effects on LFOs and the differences between healthy subjects and those with peripheral arteriosclerosis disease (PAD). 14 PAD patients and 25 healthy controls were studied in resting (RS) and passive leg raising (PLR) states. We simultaneously measured LFOs at the peripheral left earlobes (LE), right earlobes (RE), left fingertips (LF), right fingertips (RF), left toes (LT), and right toes (RT), along with coherence and phase shift analysis processing. The coherence coefficients in the PAD group were lower than those in the healthy group (p < .01), and the phase shifts in the PAD group were higher than those in the healthy group (p < .01) in a resting state. Mild to moderate PAD patients had greater coherence coefficients and smaller phase shifts than severe PAD patients. 0.05Hz PLR LFOs originating in the LT can be observed in other peripheral positions. The proportion of occurrence times for 0.05Hz PLR LFOs peaks observed at different peripheral positions was different in healthy subjects, patients with bilateral multiple lower limb arteriosclerosis, and those with left or right lower limb arteriosclerosis. The coherence coefficient and phase shift characteristics of LFOs were different between healthy subjects and PAD patients. LFOs have the potential to provide valuable physiological process information associated with atherosclerosis in the periphery.

Optimal Configuration of Omega-Kappa FF-SAR Processing for Specular and Non-Specular Targets in Altimetric Data: The Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich Study Case

In this study, the full-focusing (FF) algorithm is reviewed with the objective of optimizing it for processing data from different types of surfaces probed in altimetry. In particular, this work aims to provide a set of optimal FF processing parameters for the Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich (S6-MF) mission. The S6-MF satellite carries an advanced radar altimeter offering a wide range of potential FF-based applications which are just beginning to be explored and require prior optimization of this processing. In S6-MF, the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) altimeter acquisitions are known to be aliased in the along-track direction. Depending on the target, aliasing can be tolerated or may be a severe impairment to provide the level of performance expected from FF processing. Another key aspect to consider in this optimization study is the unprecedented resolution of the FF processing, which results in a higher posting rate than the standard SAR processing. This work investigates the relationship between posting rate and noise levels and provides recommendations for optimal algorithm configurations in various scenarios, including transponder, open ocean, and specular targets like sea-ice and inland water scenes. The Omega–Kappa (WK) algorithm, which has demonstrated superior CPU efficiency compared to the back-projection (BP) algorithm, is considered for this study. But, unlike BP, it operates in the Doppler frequency domain, necessitating further precise spectral and time domain settings. Based on the results of this work, real case studies using S6-MF acquisitions are presented. We first compare S6-MF FF radargrams with Sentinel-1 (S1) images to showcase the potential of optimally configured FF processing. For highly specular surfaces such as sea-ice, distinct techniques are employed for lead signature identification. S1 relies on image-based lineic reconstruction, while S6-MF utilizes phase coherency of focalized pulses for lead detection. The study also delves into two-dimensional wave spectra derived from the amplitude modulation of image/radargrams, with a focus on a coastal example. This case is especially intriguing, as it vividly illustrates different sea states characterized by varying spectral peak positions over time.

Peripheral Neural Synchrony in Postlingually Deafened Adult Cochlear Implant Users.

This paper reports a noninvasive method for quantifying neural synchrony in the cochlear nerve (i.e., peripheral neural synchrony) in cochlear implant (CI) users, which allows for evaluating this physiological phenomenon in human CI users for the first time in the literature. In addition, this study assessed how peripheral neural synchrony was correlated with temporal resolution acuity and speech perception outcomes measured in quiet and in noise in postlingually deafened adult CI users. It tested the hypothesis that peripheral neural synchrony was an important factor for temporal resolution acuity and speech perception outcomes in noise in postlingually deafened adult CI users. Study participants included 24 postlingually deafened adult CI users with a Cochlear™ Nucleus® device. Three study participants were implanted bilaterally, and each ear was tested separately. For each of the 27 implanted ears tested in this study, 400 sweeps of the electrically evoked compound action potential (eCAP) were measured at four electrode locations across the electrode array. Peripheral neural synchrony was quantified at each electrode location using the phase-locking value (PLV), which is a measure of trial-by-trial phase coherence among eCAP sweeps/trials. Temporal resolution acuity was evaluated by measuring the within-channel gap detection threshold (GDT) using a three-alternative, forced-choice procedure in a subgroup of 20 participants (23 implanted ears). For each ear tested in these participants, GDTs were measured at two electrode locations with a large difference in PLVs. For 26 implanted ears tested in 23 participants, speech perception performance was evaluated using consonant-nucleus-consonant (CNC) word lists presented in quiet and in noise at signal to noise ratios (SNRs) of +10 and +5 dB. Linear Mixed effect Models were used to evaluate the effect of electrode location on the PLV and the effect of the PLV on GDT after controlling for the stimulation level effects. Pearson product-moment correlation tests were used to assess the correlations between PLVs, CNC word scores measured in different conditions, and the degree of noise effect on CNC word scores. There was a significant effect of electrode location on the PLV after controlling for the effect of stimulation level. There was a significant effect of the PLV on GDT after controlling for the effects of stimulation level, where higher PLVs (greater synchrony) led to lower GDTs (better temporal resolution acuity). PLVs were not significantly correlated with CNC word scores measured in any listening condition or the effect of competing background noise presented at an SNR of +10 dB on CNC word scores. In contrast, there was a significant negative correlation between the PLV and the degree of noise effect on CNC word scores for a competing background noise presented at an SNR of +5 dB, where higher PLVs (greater synchrony) correlated with smaller noise effects on CNC word scores. This newly developed method can be used to assess peripheral neural synchrony in CI users, a physiological phenomenon that has not been systematically evaluated in electrical hearing. Poorer peripheral neural synchrony leads to lower temporal resolution acuity and is correlated with a larger detrimental effect of competing background noise presented at an SNR of 5 dB on speech perception performance in postlingually deafened adult CI users.

Evolution of helium bubbles in FeCoNiCr-based high-entropy alloys containing γ' nanoprecipitates

Abstract A series of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) containing nanoprecipitates of varying sizes were successfully prepared by a non-consuming vacuum arc melting method. In order to study the irradiation evolution of helium bubbles in the FeCoNiCr-based HEAs with γ' precipitates, samples were irradiated with 100 keV helium ions to a fluence of 5 × 1020 ions/m2 at 293 K and 673 K. And the room temperature irradiated samples were annealed at different temperatures to examine the diffusion behavior of helium bubbles. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was employed to characterize the structural morphology of precipitated nanoparticles and the evolution of helium bubbles. Experimental results reveal that nanosized, spherical, dispersed, coherent and ordered L12-type Ni3Ti γ' precipitations were introduced in FeCoNiCr(Ni3Ti)0.1 HEAs by means of ageing treatments at temperatures between 1073-1123 K. Under the ageing treatment conditions applied in this work, γ' nanoparticles were precipitated in FeCoNiCr(Ni3Ti)0.1 HEAs with average diameters of 15.80 nm, 37.00 nm and 62.50 nm, respectively. The average sizes of helium bubbles observed in samples after 673 K irradiation were 1.46 nm, 1.65 nm and 1.58 nm, respectively. The improvement in the irradiation resistance of FeCoNiCr(Ni3Ti)0.1 HEAs was evidenced by the diminution in bubbles size. Furthermore, FeCoNiCr(Ni3Ti)0.1 HEAs containing γ' precipitates of 15.8 nm exhibited the minimum size and density of He bubbles, which can be ascribed to the considerable helium trapping effects of heterogeneous coherent phase boundaries. Subsequently, annealing experiments conducted after 293 K irradiation indicate that HEAs containing precipitated phases exhibit smaller apparent activation energies (Ea) for helium bubbles, resulting in larger helium bubble sizes. This study provides guidance on improving the irradiation resistance of L12-strengthened high-entropy alloys.
