← ScienceWhich consequence results when the Fermi level shifts within the conduction band of a semiconductor?
A)Enhanced electrical conductivity occurs✓
B)Increased band gap energy results
C)Reduced electron-hole recombination rate
D)Decreased material dielectric constant
💡 Explanation
Enhanced conductivity arises because the increased electron concentration allows more free carriers, therefore current amplification becomes prevalent, rather than a suppressed current due to carrier scarcity since more readily available electrons enter the conduction band.
