← ScienceWhich consequence results when increasing gate voltage beyond breakdown in MOSFET gate oxide?
A)Increased electron-hole recombination occur
B)Dramatic reduction in electron mobility
C)Uncontrolled sourced-drain electron flow✓
D)Increased substrate electron tunneling current
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled source-drain electron flow results because dielectric breakdown creates a conductive path across the gate oxide; therefore channel control fails, rather than alternative mobility effects or substrate phenomena.
