Radioactive tracer techniques and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to study diffusion in films of hydrogenated amorphous material at temperatures of between 200 and 500C. The films were P-doped and had various defect structures. The migration rate and the diffusion coefficient were found to depend upon the defect structure. The diffusivity increased from 1.4 x 10-17 to 6.8 x 10-16cm2/s upon increasing the temperature from 200 to 250C.
