Which outcome occurs when cladding refractive index increases on waveguide?

💡 Explanation

Increased cladding refractive index causes decreased refractive index difference; therefore, reduced total internal reflection leads to increased fiber attenuation because light more easily escapes rather than remains confined, and mode confinement decreases rather than increases.
