Abstract
Measurements of the diffusion of 64Cu in pure and impure α and γ iron show a large discontinuity in the Arrhenius plot of the lattice diffusion coefficient at the α‐γ transformation, contrary to the data of Anand and Agarwala [J. Appl. Phys. 37, 4248 (1965)]. Grain‐boundary diffusion predominates at T≤815°C in the α phase and at T≤1250°C in the γ phase. Trapping of the radioactive copper by inclusions or impurities in solution also appears to have a profound effect on the diffusion process.

Diffusion of Nb in Fe and Fe alloys

TL;DR: In this article, the diffusion coefficients of Nb have been studied in unalloyed γ Fe over the temperature range 948-1201°C and in Fe-1·5Mn, Fe-0·6Si, and Fe−1·4Mn-0.6Si alloys over the range 1081 −1201 °C by the direct sectioning method using the isotopes 94Nb and 95Nb.

Cu diffusion in α-Fe: determination of solute diffusivities using atomic-scale simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a molecular dynamics study of Cu solute-atom diffusion in a Fe-0.9 at%Cu alloy were reported. And the main diffusion mechanisms under the conditions simulated are identified and discussed, and the effect of vacancy and solute clustering on Cu migration is assessed.
