Which consequence results when cadmium telluride crystal growth flaws?

A)Decreased electron-hole recombination lifetime
B)Increased grain boundary carrier mobility
C)Enhanced radiative heat transfer coupling
D)Phonon scattering mean free path increases

💡 Explanation

Flaws in cadmium telluride increase non-radiative recombination because of point defects acting via Shockley-Read-Hall recombination. Therefore, the electron-hole recombination lifetime decreases, rather than alternative changes to radiative transfer, a different process.
