Forge welding between similar materials is caused by solid-state diffusion.

These provide for the implementation of lower temperature solid-state diffusion between the interleaved layers, thus allowing the inclusion of non-traditional materials.

On January 12, 1956, a diffused base transistor was unveiled at Laureldale before top military brass at a solid-state diffusion symposium.

It operates on the materials science principle of solid-state diffusion, wherein the atoms of two solid, metallic surfaces intermingle over time under elevated temperature.

Because they employ heterogeneous electron transfer rather than solid-state diffusion or intercalation they are more appropriately called fuel cells than batteries.

Because Na and K are extremely mobile by solid-state diffusion, cooling gives rise to multiple forms of unmixing products, e.g. various kinds of perthite.

Barium Titanate Synthesized trough calcining barium carbonate and titanium oxide, followed by solid-state diffusion and reaction to form the titanate.

Comparisons of scanning curves for palladized and unpalladized hydrogen-containing silver–palladium alloys demonstrate that solid-state diffusion cannot be the slow step for the former but may be for the latter.

In 1948, Lawrence Stamper Darken published a paper entitled "Diffusion, Mobility and Their Interrelation through Free Energy in Binary Metallic Systems" in which he derived two equations describing solid-state diffusion in binary solutions.
