← TechnologyIn an LED display, which outcome occurs when the drive current exceeds the rated forward current?
A)Thermal runaway in a junction✓
B)Increased luminous flux efficiency
C)Shift towards lower wavelengths
D)Reduced reverse recovery time
💡 Explanation
Thermal runaway occurs because increased current leads to higher junction temperature, enhancing carrier generation through increased electron-hole pair density; therefore, destructive positive feedback happens rather than stabilized performance at nominal settings or spectral adjustments absent the current constraint.
