This article discusses the diffusion processes, diffusion zones, percolation theory, activation energies, and their analysis based on the results of diffusing metal oxides, primarily RuO₂, into lead silicate glass under various conditions. The doping of silicate glass significantly alters all its physical parameters. The obtained results can lead to important innovations in the development of thick-film resistors, various strain sensors, and cost-effective thermoelectric materials. The physics of this process has been extensively explored in this study.
