Which consequence results during thin-film fabrication with mismatched refractive indices?

💡 Explanation

Optical interference creates visible fringes in thin films because variations in thickness reflect light, resulting in constructive and destructive interference. Therefore, fringes indicate film thickness, rather than mechanical stress; impurity diffusion depends on temperature.
