Abstract: High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are novel materials with outstanding properties, showing potential for advancedengineering applications. Recent advancements in HEA design are complemented by studies correlating fabricationtechniques to their performance. This study introduces the pioneering use of an ultra-high-frequencypulsed current (UHFPC) TIG heat source in directed energy deposition (DED) with dual alloy-wires for thefabrication of non-equiatomic FeCoCrNiMnMo HEAs. A comprehensive evaluation of the microstructural andmechanical behavior of as-deposited and heat-treated material, guided by CALPHAD methods, is presented. Theuse of UHFPC significantly refined the microstructure and promoted homogeneity, enabling the formation of aductile FCC matrix in the as-deposited state. Subsequent heat-treatment induced recrystallization and σ-phaseprecipitation at the grain boundaries, enhancing strength via dislocation-precipitation strengthening synergy.The CALPHAD-informed heat-treatment led to ~44.2 % and ~33.4 % increase in yield and ultimate tensilestrength, respectively, while preserving superior elongation (~58 %), underscoring the potential of TIG-based-DED to fabricate HEA parts for advanced applications.
