Gas discharge lamp with reduced electromagnetic interference radiation

摘要

A gas discharge lamp (1) with a discharge vessel (2), a first electrode (3) projecting into the discharge vessel (2), and a second electrode (4) projecting into the discharge vessel (2) is described. The first electrode (3) is connected to an electrically conductive first conductor surface (5) surrounding the discharge vessel (2). The second electrode (4) is connected to an electrically conductive second conductor surface (6) surrounding the discharge vessel (2) and arranged such that it overlaps the first conductor surface (5) so as to form a capacitance (C).
