← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when transmitted light loses coherence?
A)Beam scattering decreases in imaging
B)Fringe visibility drops during measurement✓
C)Temporal resolution rises significantly higher
D)Signal-to-noise ratio improves at frequencies
💡 Explanation
Fringe visibility plummets because light coherence is necessary for constructive and destructive interference; therefore, the signal diminishes, rather than the signal scattering being reduced in intensity or improving in quality because phase relationships become harder to resolve.
