Abstract:
In one aspect, a light fixture for illuminating an environment below a ceiling tile comprises a lightguide formed from a film including folded and stacked strips extending from a lightguide region of the film. In one aspect, the film comprises light extracting features defining one or more light emitting regions that extract light from at least one light source positioned to emit light into the stacked end of strips. In another aspect a region of the film between the one or more light emitting regions and the strips comprises a bend or fold such that when the film is positioned between the ceiling tile and a ceiling tile rail support with the one or more light emitting regions of the film positioned below the ceiling tile, the at least one light source is positioned above the ceiling tile or above the ceiling tile rail support.
