← ScienceWhich consequence results when imperfect coherent beam combining?
A)Reduced fringe visibility appears✓
B)Increased stimulated Brillouin scattering
C)Polarization mode dispersion rises
D)Chromatic aberration becomes significant
💡 Explanation
Reduced fringe visibility arises because variations in path length differences lead to destructive interference; the optical path differences exceeding the coherence length will wash out interference patterns, therefore visibility is reduced rather than promoting scattering problems or dispersion.
