  • Diffusion furnaces used for [[thermal oxidation]]
  • Diffusion in the monolayer: oscillations near temporary equilibrium positions and jumps to the nearest free places.
  • Diffusion from a microscopic and b macroscopic point of view. Initially, there are [[solute]] molecules on the left side of a barrier (purple line) and none on the right. The barrier is removed, and the solute diffuses to fill the whole container. <u>Top:</u> A single molecule moves around randomly. <u>Middle:</u> With more molecules, there is a statistical trend that the solute fills the container more and more uniformly. <u>Bottom:</u> With an enormous number of solute molecules, all randomness is gone: The solute appears to move smoothly and deterministically from high-concentration areas to low-concentration areas. There is no microscopic [[force]] pushing molecules rightward, but there ''appears'' to be one in the bottom panel. This apparent force is called an ''[[entropic force]]''.

Wikipedia

Diffuse reflection

Diffuse reflection is the reflection of light or other waves or particles from a surface such that a ray incident on the surface is scattered at many angles rather than at just one angle as in the case of specular reflection. An ideal diffuse reflecting surface is said to exhibit Lambertian reflection, meaning that there is equal luminance when viewed from all directions lying in the half-space adjacent to the surface.

A surface built from a non-absorbing powder such as plaster, or from fibers such as paper, or from a polycrystalline material such as white marble, reflects light diffusely with great efficiency. Many common materials exhibit a mixture of specular and diffuse reflection.

The visibility of objects, excluding light-emitting ones, is primarily caused by diffuse reflection of light: it is diffusely-scattered light that forms the image of the object in the observer's eye.
