Which mechanism causes increased speckle contrast when a highly coherent laser illuminates a rough surface?

💡 Explanation

Multiple-beam interference causes constructive and destructive interference of reflected waves therefore increasing speckle contrast, because waves add in phase or out of phase, rather than Raman scattering altering wavelength uniformity or other effects arising from laser exposure.
