A fluorescent lamp and a lamp unit having the same are provided to form transparent electrodes on a surface of a tube for controlling a current direction to induce magnetic fields, so that the magnetic fields collide with particles in the tube for improving discharging efficiency and luminance of the lamp. A fluorescent lamp includes first and second internal electrodes(22a,22b) disposed at both ends of a tube(21a) in a direction, and transparent electrodes(24a,24b) coated on at least a surface of the tube in a direction. The transparent electrodes are made of transparent conductive film such as ITO(Indium Tin Oxide), TO(Tin Oxide), IZO(Indium Zinc Oxide), or ITZO(Indium Tin Zinc Oxide). The lamp is a CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp), an HCFL(Hot Cathode Fluorescent Lamp), or an EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp). |
