Abstrakt: High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have become pivotal materials in the field of catalysis, offering unique advantages due to their diverse elemental compositions and complex atomic structures. Recent advances in computational techniques, particularly density functional theory (DFT) and machine learning (ML), have significantly enhanced our understanding and design of HEAs for use in catalysis. These innovative atomistic simulations shed light on the properties of HEAs, enabling the discovery and optimization of catalysis materials for solid-solution structures. This Perspective discusses recent studies that illustrate the progress of HEAs in catalysis. It offers an overview of the properties, constraints, and prospects of HEAs, emphasizing their roles in catalysis to enhance catalytic activity and selectivity. The discussion underscores the capabilities of HEAs as multifunctional catalysts with stable structures. The presented insights aim to inspire future computational and experimental efforts to address the challenges in fine-tuning HEAs properties for improved catalytic performance.
