X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) collectively show the formation of a single high-entropy silicide phase. This high-entropy (Mo0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2Ti0.2W0.2)Si2 possesses a hexagonal C40 crystal structure with ABC stacking sequence and a point group of P6222. This discovery expands the known families of high-entropy materials from metals, oxides, borides, carbides, and nitrides to a silicide, for the first time to our knowle"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1902.01033","kind":"arxiv","version":4},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
