Which consequence results when impedance mismatch limits THz propagation?

💡 Explanation

Increased wave reflection occurs during impedance mismatch, because efficient propagation is hindered due to differences in refractive indices that reduces transmission. Therefore, energy reflects back rather than propagating efficiently, rather than tunnelling effects dominating.
