Pressure-induced polymorphism has recently been demonstrated in several high entropy alloys. This offers a new window into the much-debated issue of phase selection and stability in these systems. Here, we examine the effect of cryogenic temperatures on the pressure-induced transition from face centered cubic to hexagonal close-packed structures of the prototype CoCrFeMnNi (Cantor) alloy. We observe a reduction in the critical pressure for the onset of the polymorphic transition as the temperature decreases, confirming the progressive stabilization of the hexagonal phase with decreasing temperature previously predicted by ab initio calculations accounting for magnetic interactions. We argue that in situ high-pressure experiments at cryogenic temperatures, which suppress time-dependent transformation triggered at higher temperatures, present a unique opportunity to significantly improve our understanding of these complex alloys.
