<p>A low-pressure mercury-vapor discharge lamp is provided with a discharge vessel and a first and a second end portion (12a). The discharge vessel encloses a discharge space provided with a filling of mercury and an inert gas in a gastight manner. Each end portion (12a) supports an electrode (20a) arranged in the discharge space. An electrode shield (22a) encompasses at least one of the electrodes (20a) and is made from a ceramic material. Preferably, the electrode shield (22a) is tubular in shape with a lateral slit directed towards the discharge space. The lamp according to the invention has a comparatively low mercury consumption.</p> |
