Which consequence occurs when a laser beam encounters imperfections within a fibre optic cable?

💡 Explanation

Imperfections trigger Rayleigh scattering because they disrupt the refractive index, therefore energy is redirected from the original beam path, rather than experiencing amplification or phase changes; those require completely different non-linear optical mechanisms.
