← ScienceWhich consequence results when microfabricated diffraction gratings fail?
A)Reduced spectral resolution occurs✓
B)Increased mode hopping results
C)Polarization rotation remains coupled
D)Stimulated emission remains unaffected
💡 Explanation
Reduced spectral resolution occurs due to imperfections disrupting constructive and destructive interference across the grating. The mechanism of thin film interference creates spectral filtering, and these imperfections lessen precision, therefore weakening the effect rather than affecting polarization or stimulated emission.
