Abstract
Direct-current treatment (DC-treatment) was employed to tune the microstructural evolution of deformed Al0.1CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) in this paper. The time that partial recrystallization required during the DC-treatment is far less than that of conventional annealing at similar temperatures. The observation of dislocations configuration and stacking faults confirmed that the accelerated effect of DC-treatment on the promoted recrystallization of deformed Al0.1CoCrFeNi HEA, especially the distinct role of the athermal effect. Besides, results of EBSD and GND density also evidence the promoted recrystallization and the corresponding dislocations distribution under DC-treatment.
