Description

This lecture explores the reasons behind the significantly lower diffusion coefficient in crystalline solids compared to liquids and gases, delving into the atomic theory of diffusion and the factors influencing diffusion in crystalline solids. It covers topics such as thermal hopping, quantum tunnelling, and the Matano method. The lecture also discusses random movement theory, interstitial movement, and the mean square displacement of particles in a crystal lattice.
