Abstract
A fiber optic illumination system with increased power handling capabilities for low melting point fiber optics uses an optical homogenizer. Homogenizers of the present invention preferably comprise a rod with polygonal cross-section. The output intensity of the optical homogenizer is substantially uniform such that the output fiber optic will not be damaged by hot spots created by non-uniform intensity light.
