← ScienceWhich field oscillation limits resonant cavity maser frequencies?
A)Doppler broadening induces frequency shifts✓
B)Spontaneous emission decreases signal gain
C)Quantum tunneling drains resonant energy
D)Cavity expansion alters mode spacing
💡 Explanation
Doppler broadening limits masers because the thermal motion broadens the emission bandwidth through the Doppler effect, interfering with the resonance; therefore maser frequency stability degrades due to motion, rather than issues of cavity dimensions altering.
