Which mechanism causes increased electrical resistance in deformed crystal structures?

A)Increased phonon scattering events
B)Reduced electron effective mass
C)Enhanced electron-hole recombination
D)Decreased electronic band bending

💡 Explanation

Increased phonon population in a deformed crystal structure interferes with electron movement because the dominant Carrier scattering increases, therefore electrical resistance increases rather than decreasing due to band structure effects or optimized carrier transport.
