Diffusion Mechanisms

Diffusion Mechanisms is a theoretical construct in materials science that describes the atomic-scale processes by which ions or atoms migrate through a solid lattice during high-temperature oxidation, distinguished from other transport phenomena by their dependence on crystallographic defects such as vacancies, interstitials, and grain boundaries.
