Which outcome arises due to quantum tunneling in a resonant tunneling diode when applied voltage aligns energy levels?

💡 Explanation

When applied voltage aligns energy levels in a resonant tunneling diode, resonant tunneling occurs because electrons can tunnel through the quantum wells, leading to a surge in current at specific voltages. Therefore, increased current results, rather than suppressed conductance since off resonance tunneling decreases.
