UV-enhancer arrangement for use in a high-pressure gas discharge lamp

摘要

A high pressure gas discharge lamp comprising a discharge vessel, an outer envelope enclosing said discharge vessel with an interspace between the outer envelope and the discharge vessel. A UV-enhancer having a wall enclosing an electrode space with a filling gas and an internal electrode extending from the electrode space through the wall to the interspace. Said UV-enhancer is arranged in said interspace between the outer envelope and the discharge vessel, said wall of the UV-enhancer being made of ceramic material and contains said filling gas. The electrode is directly sealed into the wall.
