Which outcome accelerates when electrons breach a semiconductor oxide layer?

💡 Explanation

Dielectric breakdown is accelerated by electron tunneling through the oxide layer; the intense electric field disrupts the atomic lattice because increasing voltage exceeds the dielectric strength, therefore insulation fails catastrophically rather than exhibiting gradual leakage experienced at lower voltages.
