Detailed Description

Conference Scope & Scientific Focus

The DSL Conference is centered on diffusion as a fundamental physical process governing material evolution, microstructure development, and functional performance. The scientific scope includes, but is not limited to:

• Atomic and molecular diffusion mechanisms in solids and liquids

• Diffusion kinetics and transport phenomena

• Phase transformations controlled by diffusion

• Grain boundary, interface, and defect-mediated diffusion

• Diffusion in metals, alloys, ceramics, polymers, glasses, and composites

• Diffusion in liquids, melts, and multi-component systems

• Experimental techniques for diffusion measurement and analysis

• Computational modeling, simulation, and theoretical approaches

• Diffusion under extreme conditions (high temperature, pressure, irradiation)

• Coupled diffusion–reaction processes and non-equilibrium systems

Rather than focusing on products or equipment, DSL emphasizes scientific rigor, analytical depth, and methodological innovation.

Participants & Contributors

DSL attracts a highly specialized academic and research-driven audience, including:

• University professors and academic researchers

• Postdoctoral researchers and PhD candidates

• Materials scientists and solid-state physicists

• Chemists and chemical physicists

• Metallurgists and alloy researchers

• Researchers from national laboratories and research institutes

• Scientists working on modeling, simulation, and theoretical materials science

Contributions typically take the form of peer-reviewed oral presentations, invited talks, keynote lectures, and poster sessions, fostering in-depth scientific dialogue.

 Who Should Attend

The DSL Conference is particularly suited for:

• Researchers working on diffusion phenomena and transport processes

• Scientists studying phase transformations and microstructural evolution

• Materials modelers and computational physicists

• Experimentalists developing advanced diffusion measurement techniques

• Graduate students and early-career researchers in materials science

• Academics seeking interdisciplinary exchange between theory and experiment

• Scientists interested in fundamental mechanisms rather than industrial applications

 Why Attend the DSL Conference

• Engage in deep scientific discussion on diffusion mechanisms

• Present and exchange original, peer-reviewed research

• Gain insight into state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical approaches

• Network with an international community of diffusion specialists

• Explore cross-disciplinary links between physics, chemistry, and materials science

• Stay informed about emerging research directions in diffusion-controlled processes

The International Conference on Diffusion in Solids and Liquids is not a commercial exhibition it is a focused scientific forum designed to advance fundamental understanding and foster collaboration in one of the core fields of materials science.
