What is Kirkendall Effect and Darken about?
The document discusses diffusion in alloys and the Kirkendall effect. It begins by explaining that vacancies naturally exist in crystal structures and allow for substitutional diffusion, where atoms move into vacant lattice sites. The Kirkendall effect showed that diffusion must occur via vacancies, as it found that when two materials diffuse into each other at different rates, it causes the boundary between them to shift. This can only happen if vacancies form to allow for the different flow of atoms. Dark
