Popis: The time-dependent diffusion constant [ital D][sub [ital H]]([ital t])=[ital D][sub 00]([omega][ital t])[sup [minus][alpha]] of hydrogen in rf sputter-deposited hydrogenated amorphous Si ([ital a]-Si:H) films containing [ital C][sub [ital H]]=3--5 at. % Si-bonded H was observed to increase with the time [ital t] at 300[le][ital T][le]380 [degree]C, i.e., the dispersion parameter [alpha] was negative. As in previous studies, [alpha]([ital T]) generally decreases with [ital T] up to a sample-dependent temperature [ital T][sub [ital m]], and increases at higher temperatures. The observed behavior is discussed in relation to structural relaxation processes which affect the distribution of H trapping energies.
