ABSTRACT:
The invention discloses a cylindrical optical radiating device for obtaining controlled light distribution in a cylindrical pattern from an optical fiber. The device is constructed of a solid cylindrical tip made from material containing an optical scattering material in which a tapered central lumen having a conical shape has been drilled, cast or bored. Light emerging from the end of the fiber is radiated out in a cylindrical pattern through the use of the tapered central lumen.
