Which challenge arises from increased electromagnetic interference due to closely spaced waveguides?

💡 Explanation

Higher mode-coupling loss occurs because evanescent waves overlap; this causes energy transfer into unintended modes via mode-coupling. Therefore, mode-coupling loss increases rather than decreased material loss, which would be due a fabrication parameter.
