Science

Which outcome occurs when a high electric field is applied to a semiconductor with shallow dopant orbitals?

A)Poole-Frenkel emission occurs eventually
B)Increased Bloch oscillations are generated
C)Increased Raman scattering efficiency
D)Auger recombination rate accelerates

💡 Explanation

Poole-Frenkel emission occurs because the applied field lowers the potential barrier around the dopant, enhancing thermal excitation; this process is fundamentally field-assisted ionization rather than increased oscillations because Bloch oscillations require a periodic potential.
