Which mechanism causes increased electrical resistance when dislocations accumulate in a crystal lattice?

💡 Explanation

Phonon scattering increases resistance because imperfections in the lattice disrupt the periodic potential; this disrupts electron flow through momentum transfer (phonon scattering). Therefore resistance increases, rather than decreasing conductivity caused by smoother lattice.
