← ScienceWhich risk increases when cladding damage impairs laser fiber?
A)Photon tunneling becomes energy leakage✓
B)Increased chromatic wavelength dispersion.
C)Nonlinear pulse self-phase modulation.
D)Enhanced Brillouin gain spectrum width.
💡 Explanation
Photon escapes rise from surface imperfections because total internal reflection fails and Fresnel equations no longer bound the laser light ray. Photon tunneling is more pronounced; therefore, energy leakage rises directly, rather than impacting dispersion characteristics or other scattering effects.
