Luminit announces extreme elliptical diffusers for LED spplications

Dec. 7, 2006
Date Announced: 07 Dec 2006 Torrance, CA -– Luminit releases a line of extreme elliptical diffusers with high transmission efficiencies (>85%) that are ideal for homogenizing and diffusing LED strip lights.As LEDs are becoming brighter and more energy efficient, they are being used in more general lighting applications. Many of these applications require a homogenized light without glare or hot spots. Luminit diffusers can provide these advantages and eliminate the need for secondary optics. In the above photograph an LED lightline is partially covered with a 60Ox1O elliptical Light Shaping Diffuser(LSD). This LSD spreads the light 60O in the horizontal direction and 1O in the vertical direction, converting the linear point sources into a continuous line of light. Luminit offers the largest selection of extreme elliptical diffusers, including 50Ox4O, 40Ox0.2O, 30Ox1O, 15Ox1O and 26Ox0.2O.Engin Arik, PhD, President & CEO of Luminit, announced these products: "These new bright LED products require diffusers that will homogenize, spread and soften the light without substantially reducing the light output. "It is counter-productive to handicap these brighter lights with bulk diffusers which transmit only about 65% of the light."Luminit Light Shaping Diffusers are holographically recorded randomized surface relief structures that ensure precise angular control and provide excellent homogenization without sacrificing transmission efficiency (up to 92%). LuminitLuminit, formerly the Light Shaping Diffuser division of Physical Optics Corporation, is a privately held high technology company specializing in custom and standard holographic diffuser solutions. Luminit has commercial experience that covers areas including bio-medical, semiconductor metrology, architectural lighting and display applications. Luminit diffusers are available directly or through its network of domestic and international distributors.
