← ScienceWhich outcome arises when light waves experience destructive interference in anti-reflection coatings?
A)Reduced light transmission through lens
B)Increased light scattering from surface
C)Minimal light reflection from surface✓
D)Enhanced chromatic aberration in image
💡 Explanation
Minimal light reflection results from destructive interference because reflected waves cancel each other. The **destructive interference** minimizes the reflected intensity, therefore transmission increases rather than scattering or chromatic aberration, which wouldn't rely on phase relationships within the coating.
