A flourescent bult glows from the edges though, not the center, so a narrow interface with the bulb would be useful. You'd have to have the disc as thick as the circular fl bulb if you wanted to get as much as 1/2 the light from the bulb, and taper it inwards quickly toward the subject. So the disc would take on a concave shape.
