Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention are directed methods, apparatuses and system for establishing a linear radiant electromagnet energy field. In one embodiment of the invention, a system for providing a linear field of electromagnetic energy includes a laser, at least one length of single mode or multimode optical fiber including a core having a stitched diffraction grating of predetermined pitch for diffracting electromagnetic energy in a predetermined direction, a longitudinal optical element having a convex surface and a length corresponding to the length of optical fiber, wherein the optical element is sized such that the convex surface is positioned at a predetermined distance from the optical fiber and in a direction to receive electromagnetic energy diffracted by the grating of the optical fiber thereby establishing a linear lighting field and a lenticular array.
