Which risk increases when a scanning tunneling microscope probe tip contaminates dangling orbitals?

💡 Explanation

Reduced spatial resolution increases because contamination alters the electronic structure via orbital hybridization, preventing electrons from tunneling solely from target specific energy states; therefore resolution drops, rather than more stable or intense peaks.
