Abstract Attenuation of light in light guides is a well understood phenomenon from the point of view of the basic underlying physics. Particularly in the case of light guides having a macroscopic cross section, ray trace modeling captures all of the key physics and makes it possible to accurately predict the decay of radiant flux as a function of length in the guide. Unfortunately, in typical applications in the field of illuminating engineering, such calculations are prohibitively difficult… CONTINUE READING
