← ScienceWhich risk increases when pressure contacts the p-n junction's depletion region?
A)Increased reverse saturation current✓
B)Higher threshold voltage margin
C)Decreased static power dissipation
D)Improved switching frequency stability
💡 Explanation
Increased pressure narrows the band gap, influencing carrier concentrations; tunneling across the depletion region via Piezoelectric effect occurs because increased doping skews carriers closer together, therefore reverse current increases rather than the other effects being promoted by carrier confinement.
