Which mechanism prematurely degrades fiber optic crystals when gamma radiation increases?

💡 Explanation

Crystal lattice Compton scattering creates free electrons inducing defects; therefore, crystals degrade faster in intense radiation rather than purely through light absorption mechanisms because electron transitions dominate the decay process.
