This book provides the fundamental statistical theory of atomic transport in crystalline solids, that is the means by which processes occurring at the atomic level are related to macroscopic transport coefficients and other observable quantities. The cornerstones of the authors' treatment are (i) the physical concepts of lattice defects, (ii) the phenomenological description provided by non-equilibrium thermodynamics and (iii) the various methods of statistical mechanics used to link these (kinetic theory, random-walk theory, linear response theory etc.). The book is primarily concerned with transport in the body of crystal lattices and not with transport on surfaces, within grain boundaries or along dislocations, although much of the theory here presented can be applied to these low-dimensional structures when they are atomically well ordered and regular.

Sect. 1. 247 We have already stated that the subject of ionic conductivity can be properly regarded as one part of the wider study of imperfections, and it is on account of the coherence and unity of this wider subject that ionic conductors acquire their interest [4J. Thus the ideas of mobile interstitial atoms and vacant lattice sites are relevant to a wide range of phenomena; for example diffusion in solidsl, chemical reactions between two solids and between asolid and agas (e. g. tarnish- 3 ing reactions) 2, and annealing of radiation damage . There are, of course, imper- fections such as dislocations whose properties cannot be studied to any great extent through ionic conductivity measurements. However the existence of charges on the ions and the absence of electronic conduction enables the pro- perties and concentration of the simple localised lattice defects to be studied with greater certainty and more directness than is possible in, say, metals. This is true of the original development of the theory of lattice defects by FRENKEL [2J, SCHOTTKY [3J, [5J and WAGNER [5J, and is also true at the present time. Two examples may be mentioned.Firstly the diffusion of impurity atoms in met als may sometimes involve the formation of relatively stable pairs formed from an impurity atom and a vacan- cy [6]. In NaCl (an ionic conductor), such pairs are readily formed between a 2 Na+ vacancy and a substitutionally dissolved multivalent impurity ion, e. g.
