Which outcome accompanies increased temperature impacting silicon photodiode current?

A)Increased reverse saturation current noise
B)Decreased quantum efficiency stability
C)Enhanced electron-hole recombination lifetime
D)Reduced band gap modulation response

💡 Explanation

Increased temperature introduces greater atomic vibrational energy in the crystal lattice, increasing phonon scattering events; this increases reverse saturation current, because more electrons gain enough energy to overcome the potential barrier, therefore noise increases rather than decreases in device performance.
