Which consequence results when imperfections disrupt thin-film deposition?

💡 Explanation

Imperfections in thin-film deposition alter the optical path length, therefore, non-uniform *thin film interference* emerges, because the phase relationship varies spatially, rather than uniform color changes, thermal or mechanical property changes only occur with large defects.
