Discharges For Spectral Sources, Visible And Ultraviolet Sources

Scientific paper

Color temperature change in a mercury-rare gas low pressure discharge has been investigated. Different pulse waveforms have been employed to increase the ratio of mercury upper level transitions with respect to the resonant 254 nm radiation. Low pressure fluorescent light sources were made with coatings consisting of a blue phosphor, sensitive to 365 nm ultraviolet radiation, blended with the standard 254 nm excited red/green phosphors. With a fast rise excitation waveform, a color temperature rise of as much as 1700 K was realized although at a cost of 26% in relative luminous efficacy. An improved scheme for greater color temperature change is proposed based on a phosphor that is excitable by the mercury 185 nm ultraviolet radiation but which does not absorb 254 nm radiation.
