Mobility Database

PanCu2026_MB is an atomic mobility database for Cu-based alloys, which is compatible with the MDTCu2026_TH thermodynamic database and suitable for the simulation of diffusion-controlled phenomena using the PanDiffusion module, PanEvolution module, and/or PanSolidification module.

Components (19)

Phases

The atomic mobility within the Liquid, Bcc, Fcc, and Hcp solution phases are assessed in this database.

Self-diffusivity of Pure Elements

The color represents the following meaning:

Assessed Systems

In addition to the assessed self-diffusivities shown above, the impurity diffusion data for all included elements in the current PanCu_MB database are also assessed. In the following, the assessed chemical-diffusivity within the binary and ternary systems for the Bcc, and Fcc phases are listed, respectively.

Bcc phase

Database Validation

The simulated concentration profiles of a series of Cu-based alloys are used to validate the current mobility database for Cu-based alloys. A few examples of such simulation are shown below.
