Which outcome occurs when non-stoichiometric doping alters silicon lattice symmetry?

A)Enhanced electron-phonon scattering appears
B)Intrinsic carrier concentration decreases
C)Thermal conductivity is significantly reduced
D)Ferromagnetic ordering becomes energetically favourable

💡 Explanation

Enhanced electron-phonon scattering arises from altered lattice symmetry because impurities disrupt the periodic crystal structure, therefore reducing electron mobility for charge carriers rather than affecting thermal conductivity significantly.
