← ScienceWhich interference pattern results when monochromatic light propagates through staggered diffraction gratings?
A)Moiré fringes with amplified visibility✓
B)Decreased overall intensity uniformity
C)Chromatic aberration from index mismatch
D)Reduced spatial coherence of output light
💡 Explanation
Moiré fringes occur because slight differences in the grating period cause constructive and destructive interference. Therefore, a magnified fringe pattern appears, visible due to beat frequencies, rather than chromatic effects because just using single wavelength.
