Meet Our Featured Speaker – Prof. Brian Cantor | M-Nano 2026

We are delighted to welcome Prof. Brian Cantor, Brunel University, United Kingdom, as a featured speaker at the 2nd Edition of the International Congress on Materials Science and Nanotechnology (M-Nano 2026).

🎤 Presentation Title

“Complexityin Multicomponent High-Entropy Cantor Alloys”

Prof. Brian Cantor is an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Materials at the University of Oxford and a Research Professor at the Brunel Centre for Advanced Solidification Technology (BCAST), Brunel University. He is also Chief Editor of the Springer-Nature journal High Entropy Alloys & Materials.

His distinguished career includes leadership roles at the Universities of York, Bradford, and Oxford, as well as research experience at General Electric Research Labs in the USA and several international institutions. He has contributed extensively to materials science and is known for pioneering the field of multicomponent high-entropy alloys and discovering the Cantor alloys.

🔬 About the Presentation

The presentation will discuss the development of multicomponent high-entropy alloys and the enormous composition space available for discovering new materials. Particular attention will be given to the original equiatomic five-component CrMnFeCoNi Cantor alloy and the complexity of local atomic configurations in these materials.

The talk will explore how local atomic arrangements influence important properties and phenomena, including:

  • Atomic diffusion
  • Dislocation slip
  • Recrystallisation
  • Surface catalysis
  • Electron transport
  • Mechanical properties
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Radiation resistance
  • Recycling and reuse of materials

The presentation will provide insights into the structure, thermodynamics, complexity, and potential applications of high-entropy alloys.
