← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when oxide thinning in an LED's insulating layer allows increased gate leakage current?
A)Reduced luminous efficacy results✓
B)Increased forward voltage headroom
C)Improved thermal dissipation pathway
D)Enhanced intrinsic current focusing
💡 Explanation
Reduced luminous efficacy occurs because increased gate leakage current reduces efficiency of the LED, leading to non-radiative recombination occurring more frequently with gate leakage current acting as the primary defect propagation mechanism; therefore, emitted light drops, rather than altering voltage characteristics or thermal conductivity characteristics.
