The number of main elements of the high-entropy alloy is generally defined as: multi-element high-entropy alloy. Niobium alloys are the main elements because of the composition of the elements. In terms of the composition of the currently known elements, the alloy system developed by 彳 is not counted, so the number 1 and the type are too large. The research on high-entropy alloys is often partial and fragmented. However, until now, multi-enriched high-entropy alloys promote the homogenous mixing of the main elements due to the high entropy effect. Therefore, it is easy to form body-centered cubic (BCC), face-centered cubic (FCC) crystals, and amorphous in the crystal structure. (amorphous) and other structures, and in terms of material properties, exhibits high hardness, high temperature softening resistance, high temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, etc. In addition, the microstructure of the multi-element high-entropy alloy is due to multiple elements. Diffusion and redistribution and tilting = nanocrystallization, which has a tendency to amorphize for rapid solidification or vacuum coating processes, and therefore has great industrial potential in material applications. 3 201043574 ® 'Photoelectric components such as flat panel displays ( Coffee), solar power L, /r ', touch panel screen, e-book ("calling and other structures, etc." are not related to light, therefore, its key material itself #士从/如展Gion: the characteristics and the light penetration, and the dragon system; (4) is, for example, the material as the electrode in the electric material, the electrical material, only the IRQ, such as ITQ, Zn and ridge, transparent conductive oxide And p-type -, (10)', (10)6〇2 and grab 2〇2 and a limited number of alternative applications are more technical bottlenecks in the development of optoelectronic technology. The excellent material foundation of entropy alloys' development of new materials with photo-semiconductor properties will enable the advancement of the process to a large step. [Summary] 曰Because the development of high-drop alloys has no photoelectric properties, especially transparent Conductive material, transparent insulating material Related research, alloy: for each component is the main element '卩 The composition of the currently known elements and ^ can be developed alloy system will not count, so in the absence of development basis, the inventor from the general "clock The film must have the high hardness of 1 scraping for the sake of thinking, while the bismuth is common in the composition of _, and itself has the characteristics of ancient hardness of Ti (Ti), sharp (v), road (c〇, wrong O ': (Ta) is the main element into a high-entropy alloy, and is combined with oxygen, or nitrogen, oxygen to form an alloy oxide. The inventor calculated according to the theory, when the atomic percentage of oxygen is 33.0 (four) of the alloy oxide ~ 6G.GGat%, and the 201043574 atomic percentage of each element of the multi-element high-entropy alloy accounts for 3.00at%~18〇〇at% of the alloy oxide, and the alloy oxide formed should be suitable for photovoltaic elements. Such as transparency, insulators, semiconductors and other characteristics, and these characteristics are related to the atomic percentage of oxygen, and at the same time because of the high binding energy of oxygen, some of the characteristics are not - can be verified in the experiment 'but if Reuse nitrogen to add atoms When the ratio is in H.00at%~33.00at%, the characteristics of the high binding energy of oxygen are alleviated, and there is a large expectation that a property such as insulating property, semiconductor property, or transparency can be obtained in a predetermined atomic percentage range. The compound is used in the field of optoelectronic technology. It has been found through experiments that when the atomic percentage of oxygen is greater than the %, the alloy oxide has a transparent and insulating property; and when the oxygen is atomic. The percentage is 21.9 at% to gamat%% 'and the atomic percentage of nitrogen is ^2.5 at%'. The alloy oxide formed has the characteristics of an optoelectronic semiconductor.

Wheat Figure 1 'Figure 1 is the first and second alloy oxide x_ray diffraction pattern' can be verified by the results The first and second alloy oxides are all amorphous. Refer to Figure 2 to Figure 7 'Figures 2 to 7 are the first and first alloys of titanium, vanadium, zirconium, group, chromium and oxygen. #勿x_ray Photoelectric Energy Spectrum (P^t〇electronic spectr Sc〇py) 'Comprehensive Figure 2 to Figure 6 can verify that as the nitrogen atom is added, the binding energy of the alloy oxide is reduced, that is, the valence electron is increased or the oxidation state is reduced, that is, the alloy oxide will The optical energy gap is reduced due to the addition of nitrogen atoms, and the conductivity is gradually increased; in other words, the alloy oxide of the present invention can exhibit semiconductor characteristics by adjusting the addition of nitrogen atoms. Further, as shown in Fig. 7, oxygen atom binding It can be changed without changing the size of the atom; in other words, the addition of nitrogen atoms has a greater influence on the high-entropy alloy atoms. Referring to Figure 8, Figure 8 shows that the first and second alloy oxides are respectively at a thickness of 201043574 290nm. And at 326nm, the transmittance of light at a wavelength of 2〇〇_1〇〇〇nm is obtained. From the measurement results, it can be known that the first alloy oxide film is visible light (and the apparent transmittance is mainly due to its optics). The energy gap is large. The second alloy oxide exhibits photo-semiconductor characteristics of about 2% by transmittance of visible light due to the addition of nitrogen. See Figure 9, Figure 10, Figure 9, Figure 1. 〇 are the first and second alloy oxygen The non-direct energy gap map of the compound, from 1 yang, Z, can be known that the first alloy oxide has a large indirect energy gap, which is Ο 2.3 2.38 ev, while the second alloy oxide is added by nitrogen. The semiconductor characteristics are exhibited, and (4) the junction gap is reduced to 195 ev. The materials of the first and second alloy oxides are electrically organized as follows, and the material properties of the invention according to Table 1 can be further verified.

As described earlier, since the binding energy is reduced, the valence electrons are increased, or the oxidation state is reduced to have an optoelectronic semiconductor property.
