High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising materials for nuclear applications. Understanding the influence of local chemical order (LCO) on defect diffusion and evolution in these alloys is crucial for enhancing their resistance to radiation damage. In this study, we used molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the effect of LCO on monovacancy diffusion in CoNiCrFe HEA. Alongside the Warren-Cowley parameter, which quantifies the degree of local elemental ordering, we propose a new parameter to characterize the spatial scale of LCOs. Based on their degree, LCO structures have been classified as either chemical medium-range order (CMRO) or chemical short-range order (CSRO). Our study reveals a non-monotonic variation in vacancy diffusion coefficients, transitioning from random solid solution to CSRO and then to CMRO structures. Moreover, we observe a preference for vacancy diffusion in low-energy Fe, Co-rich regions, with their spatial distribution and spatial connectivity significantly influencing the vacancy diffusion. Due to the spatial scale of the inhomogeneity introduced by LCO, both global average diffusion parameters and single migration barriers cannot fully reflect the actual diffusion dynamics. Therefore, our study emphasizes the importance of understanding the preferred diffusion pathways and the associated energy landscapes to fully assess the defect diffusion dynamics in HEAs. This deeper investigation into localized diffusion behaviors influenced by LCO is crucial for evaluating and enhancing the radiation damage tolerance of HEAs.
