← ScienceWhich consequence results when increased strain alters interatomic spacing?
A)Band gap energy level modulation✓
B)Increased thermal electron scattering
C)Reduced electron-phonon interaction
D)Enhanced electron tunneling probability
💡 Explanation
Altered interatomic spacing modulates interactions, affecting the electronic band structure and band gap of the material; this phenomenon is the mechanism of Band gap energy level modulation due to deformation potential, rather than scattering or tunneling.
