Which risk increases significantly when semiconductor purity drops, narrowing energy bands?

💡 Explanation

Uncontrolled current flow occurs because reduced purity leads to band tailing, creating states within the band gap, allowing premature impact ionization events; therefore, Zener breakdown is observed sooner rather than at the designed reverse voltage.
