Abstract: A rod comprises an optically transmissive body having a length and a cross-section transverse to the length, with a maximum dimension along the cross-section that is from about 500 um to up to 10 cm, the optically transmissive body having air-filled lines, voids, or gas-filled lines that are distributed in a disordered manner over at least a central portion of the cross-section, desirably over the entire cross-section, whereby light launched into the body is confined in a direction transverse to the length of the body and is propagated along the length of the body.
