← ScienceWhich consequence results when improperly annealed glass exhibits excessive stress birefringence?
A)Polarization dependent signal distortion emerges✓
B)Total internal reflection gets amplified
C)Spectral broadening effects diminish slightly
D)Kerr effect based nonlinearities decrease
💡 Explanation
Stress birefringence induces changes in the refractive index based on polarization. Therefore, polarization-dependent signal distortion will arise as different polarizations experience varying optical paths because the mechanism is dependent by the degree of stress rather than total internal reflection effects.
