← ScienceWhich phenomenon explains electrical resistance changes due to lattice defects?
A)Electron-phonon scattering strengthens conductivity
B)Bragg diffraction induces new wavelengths
C)Resonance shifts reduce mean free path✓
D)Superconductivity negates intrinsic material properties
💡 Explanation
Resonance shifts cause electrical resistance changes because crystal lattice defects disrupt electron waves; this reduces the mean free path between scattering events, therefore increasing resistance, rather than influencing electron-phonon interactions.
