Abstract

A model for diffusion and phase separation which takes into account relaxation of the solute diffusion flux is developed. It is shown that the model predicts non-linearity in the amplification rate of decomposition, which is governed by the ratio between diffusion and correlation lengths. The predicted amplification rate is tested against experimental data on a binary phase-separated glass.
