Query: A Step Forward from High-Entropy Ceramics to Compositionally Complex
  Ceramics: A New Perspective   High-entropy ceramics (HECs) have quickly gained attention since 2015. To
date, nearly all work has focused on five-component, equimolar compositions.
This perspective article briefly reviews different families of HECs and
selected properties. Following a couple of our most recent studies, we propose
a step forward to expand HECs to Compositionally Complex ceramics (CCCs) to
include medium-entropy and non-equimolar compositions. Using defective fluorite
and ordered pyrochlore oxides as two primary examples, we further consider the
complexities of aliovalent cations and anion vacancies as well as ordered
structures with two cation sublattices. Better thermally-insulating yet stiff
CCCs have been found in non-equimolar compositions with optimal amounts of
oxygen vacancies and in ordered pyrochlores with substantial size disorder. It
is demonstrated that medium-entropy ceramics (MECs) can prevail over their
high-entropy counterparts. The diversifying classes of CCCs provide even more
possibilities than HECs to tailor the composition, defects, disorder/order,
and, consequently, various properties.
