However, it turned out that the description fails if the EA potential is used, which overestimates the migration barrier (\unit[2.2]{eV}) by a factor of 2.4.
In addition a different diffusion path is found to exhibit the lowest migration barrier.
A C$_{\text{i}}$ \hkl[0 0 -1] DB turns into the \hkl[0 0 1] configuration at the neighbored lattice site.
The transition involves the C$_{\text{i}}$ BC configuration, which, however, was found to be unstable relaxing into the C$_{\text{i}}$ \hkl<1 1 0> DB configuration.
If the migration is considered to occur within a single step, the kinetic energy of \unit[2.2]{eV} is sufficient to turn the \hkl<1 0 0> DB into the BC and back into a \hkl<1 0 0> DB configuration.
If, on the other hand, a two step process is assumed, the BC configuration will most probably relax into the C$_{\text{i}}$ \hkl<1 1 0> DB configuration resulting in different relative energies of the intermediate state and the saddle point.
