Description: This phenomenon (also known as the Compensation Effect) can occur in any situation which involves an activated process. However, the rule is still most commonly referred to in connection with diffusion phenomena. As the rule still tends to exist in a sort of limbo between fully accepted physical law and unexplained correlation, this volume presents a handy survey of relevant diffusion data reaching back as far as the 1930s.

Intergranular and Interphase Boundaries in Materials III

Edited by: Pavel Lejcek and Václav Paidar

Online since: November 1998

Description: Continuing the scope of the preceding Conferences on Intergranular and Interphase Boundaries in Materials, the present conference focused on the atomic-level modeling of interfaces, the structural and chemical characterization of internal interfaces, on their thermodynamic, kinetic, mechanical, electrical, magnetic behavior and high-Tc superconductivity, and on the application of current knowledge to the design of polycrystalline materials having improved properties. Particular attention was paid to non-equilibrium segregation in irradiated materials.
