Which risk increases significantly when exceeding the Debye temperature of a superconducting lattice?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding the Debye temperature causes rising phonon populations promoting electron-phonon scattering, because the thermal energy surpasses the lattice vibrational energy. Therefore, superconductivity diminishes rather than enhances, because scattering disrupts Cooper pairs.
