Which outcome occurs when a semiconductor's crystal lattice experiences excessive tensile strain?

💡 Explanation

A tensile force changes interatomic spacing, so band gap energy is modulated. Because crystal lattice deformation alters the electronic band structure – specifically the **deformation potential** mechanism – the band gap narrows. Therefore the band gap decreases, rather than electron mass rising or phonon changing, whose effects are less pronounced.
