Which propagation outcome during pulsed laser deposition causes non-uniform thin films?

💡 Explanation

Diffraction inherently limits the plume's spatial coherence because Huygens' Principle dictates the expanding plasma acts as a collection of secondary emitters; therefore, diffraction results in angular spread causing film non-uniformity rather than uniform deposition.
