Claim 23:
24. A method for forming a light-diffusing element comprising:
forming a glass core;
forming a cladding having a thickness of 5 μm to 30 μm on the glass core, the cladding having a lower refractive index than the glass core; and
forming a coating on the cladding, the coating including first scattering centers;
wherein light having wavelength of 2000 nm has a first scattering intensity, wherein light having a wavelength of 440 nm has a second scattering intensity, and wherein the first scattering intensity is within 5% of the second scattering intensity over a length of at least 50 m of the light-diffusing element.
