Metamaterial
Side glow fiber optics or side glow fibers, emit light along their length, creating a uniform glow. Their construction allows light to escape gradually, similar to neon tubes. The intensity is highest near the source and can be enhanced with powerful LEDs, and lasers or by placing light sources at both ends.
Regional Material
Side glow fiber optics are often used in illumination applications for decorative lighting, signage, and electronic textiles.
