Abstract
The cohesion-based approach developed earlier for describing the adsorptive properties of d-metal atoms on d substrates was used to calculate the self -diffusion on the (111) and (100) planes of fcc metals, and the (110) plane of bcc metals. The results of the calculation are compared with the data o btained by other researchers and with available measurements. (C) 1999 Amer ican Institute of Physics. [S1063-7834(99)00201-4].
