Which consequence results when back-reflections enter a high-power laser?

A)Suppression of mode-locking behavior
B)Increased pulsed duration minimum limit
C)Optical feedback instability emerges
D)Wavelength self-frequency shift occurs

💡 Explanation

Optical feedback instability emerges because back-reflections introduce unwanted external cavity effects affecting the population inversion dynamics, leading to chaotic power fluctuations; therefore, option C is correct, rather than mode-locking suppression, which typically requires specific cavity configurations.
