← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when the electron energy matches quantum dot confined energy level?
A)Resonant tunneling probability significantly increases✓
B)Capacitance decreases due to electron depletion
C)Coulomb blockade prevents electron transfer
D)Electron-phonon scattering rate reaches minimum
💡 Explanation
Resonant tunneling probability increases significantly because energy level alignment in the quantum dot facilitates constructive interference via the wave function matching inside, therefore electrons tunnel through the barriers, rather than lower transmission under mismatched and low- probability tunneling.
