In fiber optic communication, which consequence results when high-intensity light encounters non-linear susceptibility in silica?

💡 Explanation

Stimulated Raman scattering occurs because high intensity elevates the optical power, interacting with the silica's non-linear susceptibility and causing photons to lose energy to molecular vibrations, therefore shifting wavelengths into the Stokes range significantly, rather than shorter-wavelength, anti-Stokes generation.
