← ScienceWhich outcome impairs operation when electrons experience high tunneling?
A)Increased dark current in photodiode✓
B)Improved fuel cell reaction rate
C)Elevated battery energy storage density
D)Stabilized high-temperature superconductor film
💡 Explanation
Increased dark current in a photodiode results when unwanted tunneling occurs because electrons bypass the intended energy barrier via Quantum Tunneling rather than due to incident photons; therefore this produces noise, rather than signal which would enhance performance.
