← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when defects close Schottky junctions within polycrystalline silicon?
A)Increased minority carrier recombination velocity✓
B)Enhanced piezoelectric coefficient generation
C)Decreased material refractive index
D)Accelerated thermal expansion coefficient increase
💡 Explanation
Increased recombination velocity is observed, because defect-mediated diffusion fills the Schottky *gaps*, enhancing electron-hole recombination around impurities; therefore, lifetime plummets; rather than altering inherent material properties represented in alternative answers.
