Which electrical characteristic results when dopants modify band gaps?

A)Increased semiconductor conductivity
B)Enhanced electron tunneling
C)Reduced breakdown voltage
D)Greater dielectric strength

💡 Explanation

Increased semiconductor conductivity occurs because doping introduces charge carriers within the band gap, altering the Fermi level and increasing carrier concentration in the conduction or valence bands; therefore doping increases conductivity, rather than reducing breakdown or enhancing tunneling, because doping changes bulk properties not potential barrier widths.
