The tensor<br />

Represented by matrix D<br />

D xx , D yy , D zz reflect molecular<br />

mobility along x, y, z axes.<br />

D xy , D xz , D yz reflect correlations<br />

between molecular displacements in<br />

perpendicular directions.<br />

Eigenvalues λ 1 , λ 2 , λ 3 indicate<br />

main diffusion direction<br />
