Which consequence results when excessive optical feedback corrupts a pulsed laser?

💡 Explanation

Disturbances in timing jitter occur because excessive feedback causes mode competition, leading to mode-locking phase disturbances. Therefore, accurate synchronization is lost rather than improvements in pulse energy because unwanted reflections interfere with stable pulse formation.
