← ScienceWhich outcome limits electron mobility when grain boundaries converge?
A)Increased inter-atomic electron scattering✓
B)Enhanced phonon-mediated energy transfer
C)Reduced material quantum entanglement
D)Suppressed lattice vibrational mode excitation
💡 Explanation
When grain boundaries narrow, disruptions increase, causing increased electron scattering because electrons encounter more imperfections; this is known as boundary scattering. Therefore, electron mobility decreases, rather than mobility increasing with fewer deflections.
