← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a carbon nanotube bridges two metallic electrodes?
A)Resonant tunneling enhances electron transmission✓
B)Thermal expansion disrupts electron flow
C)Ohmic losses dominate transport behavior
D)Mechanical stress induces bandgap closure
💡 Explanation
Resonant energy levels within the nanotube's quantum well align with electron energies; therefore, quantum mechanical Resonant Tunneling enables higher current conduction rather than Ohmic transport because specific energy matching is achieved.
