Which sensing limitation results when analyzing birefringent crystals?

💡 Explanation

Light polarization rotates depending on crystal thickness; thickness variations produce spatially-varying rotations. This depolarizes the light via multiple **optical rotation**, because crystals have distinct rotation axes, therefore, direction becomes ambiguous, rather than uniform, causing measurement errors.
