1. reflection (reflection 152)

   … Since the wallzone between the high refractive material 144 and the low refractive material 145 provides a reflective surface to incident light rays, a critical angle of reflection 152 (typically 21°) is formed within the lens-core 144. …

3. reflection (reflection 152)

   … Any angle of light rays less then the critical angle of reflection 152 would, of course, remain inside the lens-core 144 and be transmitted onward until they are emitted at end 4 of FIG. 5.

4. reflection (reflection 152)

   Beyond the light-lost factor, the criticai angle of reflection 152 can, now, be used to increase the directivity of incident light radiation from that of linear to angular displacement of light transmission. FIG. 13, FIG. 14, FIG. 15, FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, illustrates different critical angle of reflection geometrical design configuration for solid 144 and/or tubular 146 lightguide stems.
