FLXR2RTP04: Light Pipes

Light pipes are specialized optical components used for efficiently guiding light from one location to another. In particular, light pipes can be used for transferring light from individual optical fibers to display panels or from one module to another in electronic application fields. The FLXR2RTP04 is an example of a light pipe specifically designed for such a purpose.

Overview

The FLXR2RTP04 is one of the latest in optical light pipe technology. It is a flat and bendable light pipe designed to fit perfectly into a small space that does not have access to the full range of optical light pipe connectors. The patented design features an inner core (or ‘ring’) of optical material, supported by a surrounding polymer sleeve. The highly flexible sleeve adapts to tight spaces, allowing the light pipe to be bent to a radius as small as 3mm, while still maintaining a reliable optical conduction.

Construction and Operation

The inner core of the light pipe is a metalized polycarbonate substrate. This substrate is layered with a thin-film coating on both sides that reflects light by total internal reflection (TIR). The light is then able to travel along the length of the light pipe without interruption or distortion. The metalized polycarbonate substrate offers superior optical clarity and works as a light guide for both visible and infrared light. The surrounding polymer sleeve is designed to maintain the round cross section of the inner core, and also to protect it from dust, water and other contaminants. The sleeve also allows the light pipe to be bent to a certain degree without distorting the image or compromising the optical properties.

Applications and Benefits

The FLXR2RTP04 is particularly suitable for applications where space is limited or where light must be transmitted from one module to another. The ability to easily bend the light pipe to a small radius makes it easy to install in even the tightest spaces. Additionally, its patented design ensures that the light is transmitted with zero distortion, meaning that images transmitted via the light pipe will remain clear and crisp. This makes the FLXR2RTP04 ideal for applications such as displays, backlighting, and fiber optic interconnection. The FLXR2RTP04 is also suitable for applications including barcode scanners, medical imaging, fire alarm systems, and industrial monitoring systems. The light pipe can be used in any application where optical signals need to be transmitted efficiently and accurately.

Conclusion

The FLXR2RTP04 is a highly specialized light pipe designed for transferring light in tight spaces. Its unique construction allows it to be bent to small radii while minimizing optical distortions. Its patented design and high optical clarity make it suitable for a wide range of applications in the medical, industrial, and consumer sectors.
