Which outcome occurs when mismatch of conduction band wave functions at a semiconductor heterojunction interface?

A)Increased electron-hole recombination rate
B)Enhanced piezoelectric polarization effects
C)Suppressed thermal carrier generation
D)Formation of standing phonon waves

💡 Explanation

Increased electron-hole recombination occurs due to non-conservation momentum caused by wave function vector mismatch. Auger recombination therefore occurs on larger scale rather than enhanced piezoelectricity, standing phonons waves or reduced carrier generations , because interface state act defects
