Which phenomenon occurs after the optical path difference?

💡 Explanation

After an optical path difference that equals half-wavelengths, destructive interference diminishes signal strength, because wave troughs align with crests. Therefore, reduced strength not amplification is more likely to occur, rather than other optical phenomena resulting.
