Numerical simulation of electron density in amorphous silicon showing the migration of a hydrogen atom (blue) from atom A to atom B (1-5). The last panel plots the distance from the hydrogen atom to the nearest silicon atom as a function of time. [Y.-S. Su and S. T. Pantelides, Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 165503 (2002)]
