← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a photon excites an electron in a semiconducting quantum dot?
A)Electron occupies a higher energy orbital✓
B)Dot matrix printer resolution increases
C)Quantum entanglement is immediately disrupted
D)Electron accelerates without bound
💡 Explanation
The electron occupies a higher orbital because photoexcitation transfers energy via photon absorption, therefore the electron transits to an available higher energy orbital. Quantum entanglement is unaffected, rather than other energy bands becoming occupied or indefinite acceleration occuring.
