摘要:
A LUWPL luminaire has a housing with a lower transparent closure and a heat dissipating top of cast aluminum. This has a suspension eye. The housing has an upper flange via which it is bolted with the interposition of a seal to a underside rim of the top. Within the rim, the underside is substantially flat, with a magnetron attachment boss and other attachment points. A magnetron is supported by being clamped by a saddle to the attachment boss at the magnetron's anode. The magnetron is fast with a transition box and a crucible support block. A bracket fixed to certain of the attachment points extends down from the top is screwed to the transition box. Thus the LUWPL parts are securely supported below the top.

An LER LUWPL source luminaire having a magnetron heat conductingly mounted below a finned heat dissipater with a suspension eye. The magnetron is attached to a microwave transition and a lucent crucible. An imperforate cover extends down from the heat dissipater and is closed by a transparent screen, held by a moulding. A generally square shaped moulding supports a polished-sheet-metal reflector (having four triangular faces, pyramidally arranged, with a square base embodied by a rim supported on the top of the screen above the moulding) extending back to the lucent crucible, with its reflective surfaces obliquely facing both the crucible and the screen for reflection of light from the crucible out of the luminaire via the screen. The faces converge to a virtual apex, on the central axis of the lucent crucible. This axis is coincident with the pyramid's normal axis from the apex to the centre of the base.

A lucent crucible of a Lucent Waveguide Microwave Plasma Light Source (LWMPLS) comprising a Light Emitting Resonator (LER) in form of a crucible (1) of fused quartz which has a central void (2) having microwave excitable material (3) within it. In one example, the void is 4 mm in diameter and has a length (L) of 21 mm. The LWMPLS is operated at a power (P) of 280 W and thus with a plasma loading P/L of 133 w/cm and a wall loading of 106 w/cm2. The lamp is thus operated with a high efficiency—in terms of lumens per watt—while having a reasonable lifetime.

A Lucent Waveguide Electromagnetic wave Plasma Light Source has a fabrication of fused quartz sheet and drawn tube. An inner closed void enclosure is formed of 8 mm outside diameter, 4 mm inside diameter drawn tube. Electromagnetic wave excitable plasma material is sealed inside the enclosure. The end plate is circular and has the enclosure sealed in a central bore in it, the bore not being numbered as such. A similar plate is positioned to leave a small gap between the inner end of the enclosure and itself. The two tubes are concentric with the two plates extending at right angles to their central axis. The outer tube extends back from the back surface of the inner plate as a skirt.

A method of applying a Faraday cage to a lucent resonator, the resonator having a void containing microwave-excitable material and being adapted for microwave resonance in the resonator and within the Faraday cage for driving a light emitting plasma in the void, the method consisting in the steps of: deposition of a conductive material onto the lucent resonator; applying, patterning and developing a photoresist material over the conductive material to leave the conductive material exposed where it is not required; removing the conductive material where not required and the photoresist material from the required conductive material, leaving a reticular network of conductive material providing a Faraday cage and depositing a layer of protective material over the cage of conductive material.

Operation to produce an intermediate product for a crucible for a LUWPL is as follows: a) a body 2 is preheated and placed on a support, with its bore concentric with a tube 4 supported in a chuck and connected to a inflation means; b) the tube is heated with the chuck being rotated for evenness of heating; c) when the temperature of the tube is detected to be the softening point of the quartz of the tube, its rotation is stopped and it is advanced into a bore 3 in the body 2; d) advance is stopped when the distal, sealed end is detected to have reached a determined protrusion 18; e) simultaneously with the advance being stopped, inflation gas is admitted into the tube, to inflate it albeit it marginally, and bring its outer surface 5 into intimate contact with the surface 6 of the bore 4.

A plasma crucible has a through bore and two tubes butt scaled on to the end faces of the crucible. One of the tubes is closed prior to the filling of the crucible. The tube is tipped off and worked in a glass lathe to form it to have a flat end. After evacuation, dosing and gas fill, the other tube is tipped off in the similar manner.

An electrodeless, microwave lamp has a magnetron as a microwave source and an excitable material lucent crucible in whose excitable material a plasma is established. For coupling microwaves from the magnetron into the crucible, an air wave guide coupling circuit is provided, with an output of the magnetron as an input at one quarter lambda from one end and an output at one quarter from the other end as an input to a connection to the crucible.
摘要:
A lucent plasma crucible having a closed body for enclosing a fill material filled in a void formed within the closed body and enclosed by the closed body, the fill material being excitable by microwave energy to generate a light-emitting plasma. The crucible is dimensioned to have low order TE or TM microwave mode properties. The orders of the modes are 0, 1 or 2. Crucibles may be regular or irregular in shape. For circular cylindrical crucibles having diameter (d) in cm, length (l) in cm, and operating frequency (f) in MHZ, (d/l)2 is between 0 and 100, and (d×f)2 is between 0 and 2×109. Also 0
摘要:
A lucent waveguide plasma light source has a quartz waveguide body with a central through bore. The bore has orifices at its opposite ends, opening centrally of flat, end faces of the body. Between these the body has a circular cylindrical periphery. A drawn quartz tube is inserted into the body. The tube has its one end closed and a collar which locates the tube in the bore and is fused to the faces at the orifices of the bore. The tube is evacuated and charged with excitable material and closed as a sealed void. A Faraday cage and an antenna in a bore in the body are provided for feeding microwave energy to the light source. When powered with microwaves, resonance is established in the wave guide and a plasma is established in the void, wherein Light radiates and leaves the waveguide and Faraday cage radially of the periphery.
