Which outcome occurs when excessive current persists in a high-brightness LED?

A)Thermal runaway degrades quantum efficiency
B)Increased radiative recombination boosts output
C)Band gap widening enhances light extraction
D)Auger recombination cools the active region

💡 Explanation

Thermal runaway degrades efficiency because self-heating raises the LED junction temperature, which increases leakage current in a positive feedback loop. This process leads to reduced light output and eventual failure, rather than temperature stabilization.
