← ScienceWhich outcome results when mismatched boundary conditions truncate wave functions within heterogeneous quantum well structures?
A)Increased interband absorption strength
B)Suppressed quantum tunneling amplitudes✓
C)Enhanced biexciton formation efficiency
D)Elevated phonon scattering rates
💡 Explanation
Truncation creates discontinuities which impact tunneling, because **quantum reflection** at abrupt potential changes increases the reflection coefficient, therefore amplitudes decrease, rather than those other influences on optical dynamics or thermal processes.
