Which effect increases when a resonant cavity's dimensions match an incoming wave's half-wavelength?

💡 Explanation

Constructive interference leads to electromagnetic energy accumulation because photons experience repeated reinforcement due to resonance within the cavity. Therefore, electromagnetic energy intensifies rather than other effects like dielectric breakdown, which require different conditions.
