Which consequence results when improperly annealed glass exhibits excessive stress birefringence?

A)Polarization dependent signal distortion emerges
B)Total internal reflection gets amplified
C)Spectral broadening effects diminish slightly
D)Kerr effect based nonlinearities decrease

💡 Explanation

Stress birefringence induces changes in the refractive index based on polarization. Therefore, polarization-dependent signal distortion will arise as different polarizations experience varying optical paths because the mechanism is dependent by the degree of stress rather than total internal reflection effects.
