Which risk increases significantly when using misaligned polarizing filters targeting a laser beam's minimum transmission?

💡 Explanation

Excessive substrate heating may lead to thermal runaway and system failure; therefore, understanding this risk is essential; it occurs because suboptimal alignment leads to unexpected transmission, and **absorption**, rather than complete blockage. Because of this more energy gets absorbed in the filter rather than reduced transmission, because of cross polarization.
