Diffusion in Solids Summary

Diffusion in Solids: Fundamentals, Methods, Materials, Diffusion-Controlled Processes by Helmut Mehrer

This book describes the central aspects of diffusion in solids, and goes on to provide easy access to important information about diffusion in metals, alloys, semiconductors, ion-conducting materials, glasses and nanomaterials.

Coverage includes diffusion-controlled phenomena including ionic conduction, grain-boundary and dislocation pipe diffusion. This book will benefit graduate students in such disciplines as solid-state physics, physical metallurgy, materials science, and geophysics, as well as scientists in academic and industrial research laboratories.

Diffusion in Solids Reviews

From the reviews:

Diffusion in solids is a mature discipline that is still an active field of research. ... The book would be a useful addition for students and researchers in solid-state diffusion, materials science and engineering. It would be especially useful for those who wish to broaden their knowledge of diffusion into unfamiliar territory. (Colin Sholl, Australian Physics, Vol. 45 (1), 2008)

A beautifully produced book with a nice clear print, clear black and white figures, a nice binding, a 12 page index, an extended bibliography ... and many references at the end of each chapter. ... this book will be of interest to materials research scientists and engineers. ... In conclusion, this book is a great reference book in which a materials scientist or engineer will find both extensive basic information on diffusion in many types of materials and extensive references to the primary literature. (Fernande Grandjean and Gary J. Long, Physicalia, Vol. 30 (2), 2008)
