FLPR36.0-UBW.6K

Light pipes, as the name implies, are optical elements that resemble a pipe in shape. In optical terms, it is an optical waveguide in which light is transmitted while propagating along its length. FLPR36.0-UBW.6K is a light pipe that has wide applications and interesting working principle. In this article, the application field and working principle of this light pipe will be discussed.

FLPR36.0-UBW.6K is a light pipe featuring a wide acceptance angle, low transmission loss and high radiation efficiency. This makes it suitable for use in a variety of industrial, medical and automotive applications. In industrial applications, it is used for illumination, broadcasting, and signally purposes. In the medical field, light pipes are used for monitoring optical instruments like endoscopes. They are used for connecting the light source with the target device while providing a wide acceptance angle, making them suitable for both surface lighting and deep tissue imaging. In automotive applications, light pipes are used for vehicle lighting, ranging from headlights to multi-angle headlamps.

FLPR36.0-UBW.6K is an optical waveguide, which utilizes total internal reflection to enable light to travel along its length. The working principle is based on the idea that when light hits a boundary between two materials of different refractive indices, some of the light will be reflected and some will be refracted. However, if the incident light angle is greater than the critical angle, all the light will be reflected, which is known as Total Internal Reflection (TIR). This effect is used in light pipes to guide the light from one end to the other.

FLPR36.0-UBW.6K is designed to have a high end-face reflectance, so that light enters the pipe and is repeatedly reflected by the walls until it reaches the opposite end. The light pipe features a wide acceptance angle, so that it can collect light from multiple sources and guide them to the desired location. The light pipe also features a low transmission loss, which ensures that the light does not get attenuated when travelling through the pipe. As a result, FLPR36.0-UBW.6K can be used for efficient lighting, broadcasting, and signal transfer applications.

In conclusion, FLPR36.0-UBW.6K is a light pipe with a wide acceptance angle, low transmission loss and high radiation efficiency, making it suitable for many industrial, medical and automotive applications. It works by utilizing total internal reflection to guide light from one end to the other.
