PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dielectric barrier discharge lamp which is constructed of a plurality of tubular discharge units (10) having the nearly same size and a main axis. SOLUTION: Each discharge unit (10) surrounds a discharge space (13) filled with a discharge gas. The discharge units (10) are arranged mutually adjacently in parallel with the main axis of these. The lamp comprises a first group of interconnection electrodes (16, 18) and a second group of interconnection electrodes (16, 18). The electrodes (16, 18) are separated from the discharge space by at least one dielectric layer. At least one of the dielectric layers is constructed of a wall of the discharge unit and the electrodes of at least one electrode group are arranged between the discharge units. In one embodiment, the discharge units are mutually adjoined in lattice form, and the first and the second electrode groups are arranged between the discharge units in the gaps interposing the lattice. In another embodiment, the discharge units are arranged mutually adjoined along the bus bar of a prism. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
