← ScienceWhich effect limits data density in magneto-optical disks?
A)Kerr effect reduces polarization rotation✓
B)Faraday effect introduces signal latency
C)Brewster angle maximizes surface reflections
D)Doppler broadening impairs readout resolution
💡 Explanation
The data density is limited because the Kerr effect induces only a small polarization rotation upon reflection. Therefore, signal detection becomes difficult at higher densities, rather than having alternative reflection issues imposed by Brewster’s angle.
