Which mechanism enables electron transitions in quantum dots?

A)Quantum Mechanical Tunneling
B)Brownian Motion Increase
C)Increased Nuclear Fusion
D)Thermal Energy Increase

💡 Explanation

Electrons can move between quantum dot orbitals via Quantum Mechanical Tunneling because this is a probabilistic passage through a potential barrier, rather than a classical passage over the barrier; therefore, electrons jump between quantized energy levels, rather than gaining continuous energy from thermal distribution.
