← ScienceWhich mechanism fundamentally restricts electron mobility in metallic crystal lattice?
A)Phonon scattering due to thermal vibration✓
B)Induced dipole creation from polarized atoms
C)Plasma oscillations reducing the bandgap
D)Resonant frequency shift due to inductance
💡 Explanation
Phonon scattering limits mobility because thermal vibration disrupts lattice periodicity leading to electron scattering. Therefore, mobility decreases, rather than electrons moving freely; other options are irrelevant at typical metallic lattice temperatures.
