← ScienceWhich outcome impairs digital holography when a surface lacks optical flatness?
A)Speckle noise masks interference patterns✓
B)Chromatic aberration distorts the image
C)Reduced intensity decreases hologram contrast
D)Polarization shift creates image ghosting
💡 Explanation
Speckle noise arises because surface irregularities cause interference from points with varying path lengths; optical coherence is needed but disrupted, therefore speckle noise masks the hologram, rather than aberration or altered polarization shifts which have different causes.
