Abstract
A light fixture with a single edge lit optical assembly produces various light distributions which provide targeted control of light output with peak intensity that is non-normal to the light guide output face. The compact form factor of light fixture embodiments having narrow width are particularly well-suited for use in linear lighting applications requiring suspended, surface and recessed installations typically used to illuminate walls, floors and/or ceilings. The light fixture can also be selectively configured and oriented during assembly and installation to achieve various lighting distributions including asymmetrical and symmetrical with one or more peak intensities. Optical components within the light fixture are typically positioned and retained in optical alignment with internal support features of a linear housing. The optical assembly typically includes LED board, light guide, and one or more reflectors, and an optically transmitting component further providing a fixture assembler a range of design choices.
