Which outcome occurs when a transistor's silicon lattice heats unevenly?

💡 Explanation

The uneven lattice heating leads to local strain. Lattice strain induces a piezoelectric effect shifting band gaps because crystal symmetry changes; therefore altering transistor characteristics rather than simply increasing boundary resistance.
