Knopf, G: Elastomeric Optics - George K. Knopf - Bog

Flexible elastomeric optical sheets are thin, large-area (cm² to m²) polymer light guide structures that can be used to create innovative passive light harvesting and illumination systems, designed to be draped over arbitrary surfaces or hung like a curtain. The book introduces the optical principles and theoretical foundation of optical sheets, and summarizes the critical design guidelines for creating multifunctional monolithic optical sheets.
