← ScienceWhich risk increases dramatically when a semiconductor manufacturing process reduces dopant control precision?
A)Increased leakage current in transistors✓
B)Improved carrier mobility performance
C)Reduced channel length modulation effect
D)Higher gate oxide breakdown voltage
💡 Explanation
Increased leakage current appears because of the reduced dopant control; therefore, the band gap is less sharply defined at junctions due to increased variability, resulting in higher probabilities for quantum tunneling, rather than improved transistor performance.
