List of Light Pipes (Homogenizer Rods)
Short delivery time with stock sales! All items available for sale from just one piece.
Edmund Optics offers a wide range of optical elements in stock. Many of Edmund Optics' light pipes have a hexagonal cross-section. The hexagonal cross-section results in 35% less transmission loss compared to comparable square cross-section light pipes. Light pipes made of synthetic quartz are suitable for applications using UV LED light sources. Tapered light pipes are available with magnification options starting from 2X and 3X. Edmund Optics also provides mounts for tapered light pipes and hexagonal cross-section light pipes. The light pipe mounts are designed to facilitate system integration and provide ease of handling. They consist of two resin clamps and one barrel part that do not damage the same element during fixation, along with four set screws. The ends of the clamps minimize contact with the light pipe, maximizing the throughput of the light pipe. For more details, please check the official Edmund Optics website via the link below.
basic information
A light pipe, also known as a homogenizer rod, is an optical element designed for various applications that require a uniform spatial intensity distribution of light. Light pipes utilize the phenomenon of total internal reflection to homogenize light from a non-uniform intensity source, regardless of the spectral characteristics of the source.
