Homogenized beam shaper

A beam shaper has a light pipe fabricated of a material having a refractive index that provides total internal reflection within the light pipe. A first face accepts light and a second face releases light from the light pipe. The faces are orthogonal to an axis about which the light pipe is twisted...

Zusammenfassung:A beam shaper has a light pipe fabricated of a material having a refractive index that provides total internal reflection within the light pipe. A first face accepts light and a second face releases light from the light pipe. The faces are orthogonal to an axis about which the light pipe is twisted and have different shapes. The area of the second face differs from an area of the first face by less than 25%.
