← ScienceWhich outcome reduces fringe visibility when illuminating two slits?
A)Increasing the source linewidth broadens✓
B)Rotating one polarizer shifts frequency
C)Increasing temperature reduces power
D)Using high intensity destroys pattern
💡 Explanation
Increasing the source linewidth of the light reduces its coherence, diminishing interference fringe visibility because temporal coherence is decreased. Therefore, fringe visibility decreases rather than alternative polarization or intensity effects destroying patterns.
