Are there any other reflectors based on this wire with shorter repeat time?

Do linear spacefillers exist? I've seen the normal quadratic ones, and sublinear ones consisting of a signal expanding an agar (or antivoid) in a spiral formation, but do any rules exist qith linear ones?

I am very sorry. I forgot to mention LifeViewer support.
