Which outcome occurs when exceeding a Schottky diode's temperature rating?

💡 Explanation

Increased temperature enables **thermionic emission** across the Schottky junction, because higher thermal energy allows more electrons to overcome the barrier. Therefore, reverse leakage current spikes abruptly, rather than forward characteristics improving.
