a, b (a) a single and (b) multiple CrMnFeCoNi HEA NPs produced with hydrogen plasma. c, d (c) a single and (d) multiple CrMnFeCoNi HEA NPs produced with helium plasma. e, f (e) a single and (f) multiple MnFeCoNiCu HEA NPs produced with hydrogen plasma. g, h (g) a single and (h) multiple MnFeCoNiCu HEA NPs produced with helium plasma. i, j (i) a single and (j) multiple CrFeCoNiCu HEA NPs produced with hydrogen plasma. k, l (k) a single and (l) multiple CrFeCoNiCu HEA NPs produced with helium plasma. The elements in CrMnFeCoNi and MnFeCoNiCu HEA NPs have near equimolar ratios while the Cu content in CrFeCoNiCu HEA NPs (12~14%) is deviated from that of feedstock due to local segregation (Supplementary Figs. 18, 21, 24 and Supplementary Table 11). Scale bar, 50 nm (single NP) and 100 nm (multiple NPs).
