Which outcome occurs when dopants are implanted within a silicon crystal lattice?

💡 Explanation

The Fermi level changes due to the introduction of extra charge carriers via the doping process; this is band bending. Introducing these new energy states causes the Fermi level to shift, therefore changing conductivity, rather than maintaining dielectric strength.
