This chapter discusses diffusion in solids, including:
1) How diffusion occurs via vacancy or interstitial mechanisms and depends on structure and temperature.
2) Fick's laws of diffusion and how diffusion can be quantified by measuring flux.
3) Examples of diffusion applications like case hardening and doping semiconductors.
4) How the diffusion coefficient increases exponentially with temperature and can be used to solve problems involving steady-state and non-steady-state diffusion.
