    High Entropy Materials covers the fundamental concepts of these materials and their emerging applications. To fulfil growing energy demand, scientists are looking for novel materials which can be used for the fabrication of high-performance energy devices. Many materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and metal oxides are used in energy production and storage. A new class of metal oxides, multicomponent metal oxides, known as high entropy materials, have attracted considerable attention not only for their energy applications but also other emerging applications such as use in sensors, catalysts, and CO2 absorption.
