Soft-magnetic fibers (SMFs) play a crucial role in energy conversion, transmission, and storage within electronic devices. However, conventional SMFs have poor plasticity and are therefore difficult to withstand long-term tensile, torsional, and shear deformation. A high fraction of grain boundaries could improve plastic deformability of conventional SMFs, but deteriorates the coercivity. This severely limits their applications in flexible electronics and multifunctional components. Herein, we propose a strategy to overcome this dilemma, which is realized by coarsening the grains of a FeCoNiAlTaSi high entropy alloy (HEA) fiber containing ordered coherent nanoprecipitates with small lattice misfit via a simple one-step in-rotating-water spinning method. This allows to reduce domain wall pinning and improve dislocation mobility. The resultant micron-diameter soft-magnetic HEA fiber has a tensile strength of 674 MPa at 23% elongation, a low coercivity of 8.1 Oe, a moderate magnetization of 116 emu/g at 10 kOe and a high Curie temperature of 770 K.
软磁纤维（SMFs）在电子设备的能量转换、传输和存储中起着至关重要的作用。然而，传统的软磁纤维塑性较差，因此难以承受长期的拉伸、扭转和剪切变形。高比例的晶界可以提高传统软磁纤维的塑性变形能力，但会降低矫顽力。这严重限制了它们在柔性电子器件和多功能部件中的应用。在此，我们提出了一种克服这一困境的策略，该策略通过一种简单的一步旋转水纺丝方法，使含有有序相干纳米析出物且晶格失配小的FeCoNiAlTaSi高熵合金（HEA）纤维的晶粒粗化来实现。这有助于减少畴壁钉扎并提高位错迁移率。所得的微米级软磁高熵合金纤维在伸长率为23%时的抗拉强度为674 MPa，矫顽力低至8.1 Oe，在10 kOe时的中等磁化强度为116 emu/g，居里温度高达770 K。
