← ScienceWhich signal degradation occurs when optical coherence plunges at high temperatures?
A)Increased transverse mode competition
B)Reduced stimulated Brillouin scattering
C)Increased phase noise jitter✓
D)Lowered group velocity dispersion
💡 Explanation
Increased phase noise jitter results from the loss of optical coherence as temperature rises, because thermo-optic effects disrupt the phase relationship between photons, therefore causing timing fluctuations, rather than affecting mode selection or scattering thresholds.
