  • Abstract
    We use the cellular automaton (CA) approach to model binary diffusion in solids. We define an asynchronous CA model and formally take its continuum limit and show it approaches a differential equation model derived in previous work (Ribera, Wetton, and Myers, 2019, arXiv:1911.07359 [cond-mat.stat-mech]) that exhibits the Kirkendall effect. The framework allows the exploration of other state change rules based on additional physical mechanisms. Keywords
