← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when electrons bypass a heavily doped region via proximity?
A)Increased gate oxide breakdown probability
B)Increased subthreshold leakage current✓
C)Reduced channel mobility degradation
D)Reduced short-channel effect influence
💡 Explanation
Increased subthreshold leakage occurs because quantum tunneling allows electrons across the forbidden band; therefore, current leaks through areas it should not, rather than behaving as expected under classical electron transport models.
