← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a surface plasmon resonance is induced?
A)Reflected light intensity decreases sharply✓
B)Incident angle remains near constant
C)Transmitted light intensity increases dramatically
D)The refractive index layer drops
💡 Explanation
Surface plasmon resonance causes a sharp dip in reflected light intensity because the incident photons' energy is transferred into surface plasmons via resonant coupling. Therefore reflected intensity diminishes, rather than an increasing transmission intensity.
