← ScienceWhich consequence results when optical path differences increase?
A)Decreased contrast in interference fringes✓
B)Increased chromatic aberration visibility
C)Reduced diffraction at small apertures
D)Enhanced single-slit interference maxima
💡 Explanation
Increased optical path differences lead to increased phase shifts among interfering waves; therefore, **constructive and destructive interference** regions blur, reducing fringe contrast, because fringes require phase coherence, rather than distinct spectral effects or diffraction phenomena.
