Which outcome results from exceeding silicon's avalanche breakdown voltage?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding avalanche breakdown voltage leads to uncontrolled current increase because impact ionization creates electron-hole pairs, causing exponential carrier multiplication therefore the current surges rather than dopant diffusion or decreased mobility because the applied field exceeds the Shockley limit.
