← ScienceWhich consequence results when thin-film interference shifts wavelengths?
A)Structural color becomes viewing angle dependent.✓
B)Refractive index increases non-linearly.
C)Thermal conductivity paradoxically decreases.
D)Electrical resistance exceeds quantum limit.
💡 Explanation
Structural colors shift with viewing angle because *thin-film interference* affects which reflected wavelengths constructively interfere. Therefore, the perceived hue varies, rather than the refractive index changing drastically, because the physical structure filters light
