← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when thin-film interference creates destructive interference on photodiode?
A)Reduced light transmission measured✓
B)Increased electrical current flow
C)Enhanced ambient light sensitivity
D)Photodiode heats more quickly
💡 Explanation
Reduced light transmission occurs because destructive interference minimizes light reaching the photodiode via superposition, where waves cancel, rather than amplify, each other. The sensor detects minimal light; therefore reduced signal output rather than increased signal occurs.
