← ScienceWhich risk dramatically elevates within silicon wafers due to the propagation of crystal defects?
A)Decreased carrier mobility✓
B)Increased data density
C)Enhanced quantum tunneling
D)Improved thermal conductivity
💡 Explanation
Decreased carrier mobility occurs because phonon scattering becomes prominent; the irregular lattice disrupts electron pathways. Because of this defect propagation dramatically diminishes conductivity; therefore carrier mobility drops rather than increase to cause superior transistor attributes.
