The PLP2-750 range of high-performance light pipes from leading manufacturer, CML Opto, is the ideal way to bring light from one area to another. Whether you need a solution for an interior or exterior application, the PLP2-750 can provide a reliable, non-intrusive way of doing this. In this article, we\'ll explain in more detail the application fields this product is suitable for and its working principle.

Application Fields

The PLP2-750 light pipes provide a simple solution for moving light from one device to another. This can be:

• Lighting applications - To connect monitors that are placed at a distance from each other with uniform brightness.
• Industrial equipment - To bring light from a LED in to the interior of a machine for display purposes.
• Interior decor - To create or extend lighting effects.
• Exterior applications - To bring light from spotlights into areas that are not directly exposed to them.

These light pipes are also used in medical equipment for the safe transmission of light from a light source to a part of the body.

Working Principle

The PLP2-750 works on the principle of total internal reflection, or TIR. This is a phenomenon that occurs when light is incident on the external surface of a pipe, and is reflected off the internal surface of the pipe.

Total internal reflection ensures that light remains in the pipe and is not lost; this is because the angle of incidence at each reflection is greater than the critical angle. This is the angle of incidence at which light is no longer reflected but instead passes through the boundary between two media, such as the boundary between the pipe and the air.

In addition to this, the internal surface of the pipe is not totally smooth, which ensures that light is scattered in different directions as it is reflected. This is known as diffusion, and it ensures that when the light exits the pipe, it is dispersed evenly.

Conclusion

The PLP2-750 range of light pipes from CML Opto provides efficient and reliable solutions for applications that require the transportation of light from one area to another. Thanks to its working principle based on total internal reflection, light remains in the pipe without being dissipated. In addition, the diffusion of light ensures that when it exits the pipe, it is dispersed evenly.
