← ScienceWhich risk increases when reflective facets misalign internally within a solid-state laser?
A)Increased mode-hopping instability develops✓
B)Spectral emission linewidth dramatically narrows
C)Spontaneous emission entirely dominates output
D)Population inversion uniformly intensifies
💡 Explanation
Increased mode-hopping becomes more prevalent because slight angular shifts cause shifts in the cavity modes through alterations to the standing wave conditions. Therefore, instabilities escalate, rather than linewidth limiting itself or affecting population inversion.
