FLAT DISCHARGE LAMP

摘要

The present invention relates to a flat discharge lamp (1000) transmitting in the visible and/or in the UV, comprising first and second dielectric walls (2, 3) facing each other, kept parallel and sealed around the periphery (8), thus defining an internal space (10) filled with a plasma gas, and comprising a UV and/or visible light source (6), first and second electrodes (4, 5) in separate planes parallel to the first and second walls, the first electrode (4) being at a potential VO higher than the potential V1 of the second electrode, and the first electrode being placed in the internal space and closer to the first dielectric wall than the second electrode. Furthermore, the first electrode is spaced away from the first dielectric wall by the gas, the first and second electrodes being separated by a flat electrical insulator (7) with at least one main face (71, 72), called a holed face, provided with emergent holes (73), at least one of the first and second electrodes being in contact with the holed main face and having discontinuities at least in the extension of said holes.
