Which outcome occurs when rapid cooling induces crystallization of amorphous silicon?

💡 Explanation

The increased density leads to defects; because as crystallization occurs via nucleation and growth, the interfaces trap impurities/vacancies; therefore point defect concentrations increase rather than boundary improvements from annealing or better radiative behavior.
