← ScienceWhich outcome arises during rapid sublimation in integrated electronics?
A)Localized thermal runaway propagation rises✓
B)Increased carrier mobility within semiconductors
C)Uniform temperature distributions are maintained
D)Minimized electrical resistance over time
💡 Explanation
Thermal runaway initiates because rapid sublimation absorbs significant heat at a localized point causing uneven cooling, and reduces the heat capacity; therefore thermal runaway initiates at these points of instability rather than uniform heat dissipation across the chip as alternative heat transfer is limited.
