Which electron behavior explains increasing resistance when dopants exceed solubility limits?

A)Increased electron-phonon scattering
B)Dopant atoms forming secondary phases
C)A diminishing dielectric constant
D)Enhanced band gap induced tunneling

💡 Explanation

Secondary phases introduce new interfacial regions that scatter electrons because the **formation of precipitates** disrupts electrical conduction. Therefore, resistance increases, rather than band-gap changes. Electron-phonon scattering describes normal temperature dependance, not effects solubility limits impose.
