← ScienceWhich risk increases when optical feedback enters laser?
A)Coherence collapse occurs in laser✓
B)Spontaneous emission increases sharply
C)Quantum entanglement becomes more probable
D)Gain medium becomes saturated faster
💡 Explanation
Coherence collapse increases because back reflections cause perturbations in the laser's gain medium, resulting in significant phase and amplitude fluctuations; therefore coherence is disrupted, rather than other effects like spontaneous emission, which are related to separate cavity properties.
