Further results (I) E4/E5 occur with the same relative initial concentration (~25% of [V2]) and exhibit the same annealing rate at RT irrespective of MCz(as-processed, pre-annealed, pre-annealed+hydrogenated), SFz(as-processed, pre-annealed, pre-annealed+hydrogenated) and DOFZ (as-processed, pre-annealed, pre-annealed+hydrogenated)
Further results (II) • Isothermal annealing of E4/E5 at 22 °C (RT), 40.5 °C, 55 °C and 65 °C yield; • First order kinetics (exponential decay) • Activation energy of ~1.27 eV • Prefactor of ~2.1x1015 s-1 Cf values for reverse annealing by Moll et al.; Activation energy: ~1.33 eV Prefactor: ~1.5x1015 s-1 !!!!!
