Which risk increases regarding germanium transistors at cryogenic temperatures?

💡 Explanation

Electron freeze-out from donor levels increases because at cryogenic temperatures, thermal energy is insufficient to ionize dopant atoms, therefore conductivity drops rather than electron mobility improvements or modulation effects which arise under different conditions.
