<strong>Grain</strong> <strong>Boundary</strong><br />

Diffusion<br />

• Especially for high symmetry<br />

boundaries, there is a very<br />

strong anisotropy of diffusion<br />

coefficients as a function of<br />

boundary type. This<br />

example is for Zn diffusing in<br />

a series of symmetric<br />

tilts in copper.<br />

• Note the low diffusion rates<br />

along low energy<br />

boundaries, especially Σ3.
