← ScienceWhich undesirable consequence results due to chromatic aberration in microscope objectives?
A)False color fringes around structures✓
B)Reduced depth of field visibility
C)Increased spherical distortion artifacts
D)Decreased image contrast noticeably
💡 Explanation
Chromatic aberration causes refractive index variations for different wavelengths, leading to dispersion. Therefore, image fringing becomes visible as individual colors don't focus on the same plane because of interference effects, rather than other resolution or distortion irregularities.
