Non-rotationally symmetric mixing rods

Uniformity remains a central topic in illumination system design and mixing rods provide an effective means to providing uniformity. Typically, flux enters one end of a mixing rod and the flux exiting the other end provides improved spatial and/or angular uniformity. We investigate the use of mixing rods with rippled surface structures to provide enhanced uniformity.
