Which risk increases when a dielectric's thickness decreases in capacitively coupled waveguide?

💡 Explanation

Wave propagation mode degradation occurs, because a thinner dielectric heightens the effects of surface roughness, causing increased scattering via Rayleigh scattering; therefore, affects mode orthogonality and increases energy leakage, rather than beneficial stability or coupling effects.
