← ScienceWhich risk increases when birefringent material stresses optical fibers?
A)Increased polarization mode dispersion✓
B)Reduced chromatic aberration effects
C)Enhanced stimulated Raman scattering
D)Minimized four-wave mixing products
💡 Explanation
Stress induces additional birefringence, initiating polarization mode dispersion because of variations in refractive indices; therefore, increased dispersion becomes likely, rather than improved aberration or alternative fiber effects under these conditions.
