I recommend this one. I got it at the feed store in the poultry section. It is about 11 inches wide, it is made to hold bulbs 250 W so it can easily handle the 100 W.

The light shown/referenced above by leigti is called a 'brooder light'. Something to keep in mind is that the rating of the fixture is determined by the size of the dome. The ceramic socket itself is probably the same for all the different size domes.
