Which mechanism causes increased electrical resistance in a doped semiconductor when heated?

💡 Explanation

Increased temperature causes increased phonon scattering, impeding electron flow because lattice vibrations disrupt the electronic band structure. Therefore, resistance increases rather than decreases because carrier mobility is suppressed; other options propose differing behaviors.
