← ScienceWhich symptom arises when anisotropic material stresses hinder polarized light microscopy?
A)Birefringence colors appear misaligned✓
B)Resolution increases beyond Rayleigh limit
C)Fluorescence quenching becomes intensified
D)Raman scattering peaks lose stability
💡 Explanation
Anisotropic stresses cause stress-induced birefringence, which alters polarization. Because incident polarized light splits into two rays that experience shifting refractive indices dependent on orientation, therefore colors misalign, rather than an increase resolution.
