Fig. 3: Interatomic force constants.
From: Settling the matter of the role of vibrations in the stability of high-entropy carbides

Force constants Φ for the high-entropy carbides \(\left({{{{{{{\rm{HfNbTaTi}}}}}}}}R\right){{{{{{{\rm{C}}}}}}}}\) (HEC-R, left) and the rock-salt binary carbides MC (right): a, b HEC-V, c, d HEC-W, e, f HEC-Zr. Lighter colors represent IFCs containing R. IFCs were projected onto common Cartesian axes using AFLOW-XtalFinder93.
