A form of fan beam (2-1-090) in which the angle of divergence is decreased by diverting a part of the light laterally to increase the intensity in a desired direction.
Note: The Directional Drum Lens is used in the United States and is an example of an optic which produces a converged beam.
Please note that this is the term as it stands in the original IALA Dictionary edition (1970-1989)
