Diffusive Transport

Diffusive Transport is a physical transport mechanism, within the broader class of carrier transport phenomena, in which particles, energy, or momentum propagate through a medium via random molecular motion driven by concentration or chemical potential gradients, distinguished from convective or ballistic transport by its dependence on stochastic microscopic interactions and adherence to Fick’s laws.
