← ScienceWhich mechanism causes reduced electron mobility in polysilicon channels?
A)Grain boundary scattering dominates conduction✓
B)Increased thermal vibration of ions
C)Phonon-photon interactions induce polarization
D)Interference effects amplify electron wavelength
💡 Explanation
Grain boundary scattering reduces electron mobility because electrons encounter potential barriers and changes in the crystal orientation at the boundaries, therefore conductivity decreases rather than remaining similar to monocrystalline silicon due to ballistic transport.
