Popis: p-Si:B samples were irradiated with 8-MeV electrons. The values of the activation energy of annealing for K centers and for (V + B) complexes obtained from the curves of isochronous annealing of these centers are found to be equal to 0.915 and 1.6 eV, respectively. The volumetric measurements of photovoltage over the irradiated region make it possible to estimate the values of the migration energy of vacancies. The migration energy is found to be $$E_{V^{ + + } }^M \approx 0.6 eV$$ for positively charged vacancies and $$E_{V^0 }^M \approx 0.345 eV$$ for neutral vacancies.
