2 Substitutional Diffusion Different possibilities Exchange Mechanis Vacancy Mechanis A A A A A A A A A A May occur on surface Higher activation energy Far ore coon in solids Lower activation energy Features of substitutional diffusion via vacancy echanis Size of diffusing atos/ions: siilar to surrounding atrix ato/ion size Successful juping rate deterined by Frequency of jup attepts (theral activation), & Availability of vacancy (concentration)

3 3 Interstitial Diffusion Atos/ions at interstitial sites -D 3-D (Octahedral) Interstitial sites Features FCC CC Size of diffusing atos/ions - Much saller than surrounding (atrix) atos/ions C diffusing through Fe: r C ~ 70 p vs. r Fe ~ 40 p Cu diffusing through Si: r Cu+ = ~77 p vs. r Si ~ 0 p Successful juping rate for dilute solid solution - Deterined by theral activation alone as neighboring interstitials typically are rarely occupied
