Which risk increases when anisotropic material experiences stress?

💡 Explanation

Increased stress in anisotropic materials enhances **stress-induced birefringence** because the increased load differentially changes refractive indices along different axes, therefore polarization rotation increases rather than susceptibility changes under magnetic fields.
