Light Guides
Light Guides are used wherever the light of a lightsource should be distributed homogeneously over a particular area, when there is a spatial distance between light source and the area which is to be
illuminated.
This application brief is confined with the LED as light source for light guides. A light guide module is a combination of the light guide itself and LED‘s mounted to a circuit substrate. Light guides are used in a wide range of application fields. Due to the wide variety of light guide designs and applications, use of light guides with LED‘s as lighting element is an ideal combination.Use of conventional lamps such as incandescent lamp or flourescent tubes with light guides is also possible. Due to the wide radiation angle and the large package of conventional lamps, LED‘s are much more suitable for light guide systems. Detailed information about advantages of LEDs are given in the chapter „Reasons for the need of LED instead of incandescent lamps and flourescent tube“.
