Light pipes, also known as light guides, are devices that are used to guide light from a source to an output location. They can be used to transmit light from a point source to a remote area, such as a ceiling, wall, or corner. LC-6.5 is a type of optical lightpipe which is categorized by its size and behavior of propagating light.

The structure of LC-6.5 consists of a flexible plastic core encased in an aluminum reflector. This type of lightpipe is typically characterized as a focused transmission system, meaning that the light is transferred efficiently within the LC-6.5 lightpipe in a concentrated beam from the input side to the output side.

The light is not diffused along the length of the pipe. This shape and functionality are made possible thanks to the presence of an inner reflective tube added on to the flexible plastic. The aluminum reflector helps to improve efficiency and reduce the amount of light scattered along the pipe. The entire length of the LC-6.5 is 60 cm, making it suitable for use in limited space systems.

One of the main applications of LC-6.5 is in LED lighting systems, where it is used to provide focused light distribution from an LED source to a given location. In such applications, the lightpipe is placed around the LED and behaves like an optical fiber, guiding the LED light from the source to the output location. The amount of light transferred can be adjusted by changing the length of the LC-6.5 or the length of the reflective tube.

The working principle of LC-6.5 lightpipe is based on total internal reflection, which is a phenomenon of light in which the light rays bounce off the inner surfaces of the LC-6.5 lightpipe without escaping outside. When light enters the reflective inner tube, it is reflected until it reaches the end of the plastic core. The amount of light that is transmitted is determined by the angle of the reflective tube. The angle of the reflector determines the amount of light that is transferred from the source to the output side.

LC-6.5 has many advantages over other types of lightpipes, such as flexibility and low cost. It is also easy to install and extend as it can be cut to size and shortened or extended as required. In addition, its lightweight and slim design gives it the advantage to be used in small and complex light systems where other types of lightpipes would not fit.

LC-6.5 is an excellent choice for applications where light needs to be directed from a source to a specific location. Thanks to its unique design and material composition, it offers an efficient and cost-effective way to transport and transmit a focused beam of light over long distances. It is widely used in LED and other lighting applications where a focused and even distribution of light is required.
