摘要:
A low-pressure gas discharge lamp is described, which is equipped with a gas-discharge vessel containing an inert gas filling as the buffer gas and an indium, thallium and/or copper halide, and with electrodes and with means for generating and maintaining a low-pressure gas discharge, which has as the electron emitter substance a compound selected from the group of ABO3 or AnBO2+n, AnC2O5+n, or AnD2O3+n, wherein: A = an alkaline earth element or a mixture of several different alkaline earth elements, B = cerium, titanium, zirconium, hafnium, or a mixture of these elements, C = vanadium, niobium, tantalum, or a mixture of these elements, D = scandium, yttrium, lanthanum, a rare earth element, or a mixture of these elements.
摘要:
The invention relates to a discharge lamp equipped with a gastight discharge vessel that contains a filling that comprises a gas, that is transmissive for at least part of the electromagnetic radiation that is generated by the filling during operation and is equipped with lamp electrodes between which a discharge is maintained during operation. In accordance with the invention the discharge lamp comprises a piezotransformer and at least one of the lamp electrodes comprises a secondary side of the piezotransformer. Since the piezotransformer functions as a lamp electrode, as a ballast choke and as a transformer, the discharge lamp can be operated by means of a relatively simple and cheap ballast circuit.
摘要:
In a capacitively coupled discharge lamp the electrode (4, 5, 6) comprises a dielectric material (6) that during operation is in contact with the discharge. The impedance of the dielectric material is small and its electron affinity is negative. In this way it is realized that the discharge lamp can be operated efficiently at low frequencies (less than 500 KHz).
