← ScienceWhich outcome results when electrons undergo band bending?
A)Altered quantum mechanical tunneling probability✓
B)Increased rate of nuclear fusion
C)Destabilization of electron's d-orbital symmetries
D)Increased momentum from electromagnetic radiation
💡 Explanation
Band bending near heterojunctions modifies the potential barrier, affecting electronic wavefunctions; quantum mechanical tunneling changes because the barrier width/height shifts, impacting tunneling behavior. Therefore, tunneling probability alters, rather than nuclear fusion or orbital symmetry destablization.
