Hot-cathode discharge fluorescent lamp filled with low pressure rare gas.

摘要

Hot-cathode discharge fluorescent lamps filled with low pressure rare gas being discharge fluorescent lamps filled with low pressure rare gas with a tube diameter of 16 mm or less provided with a pair of electrodes on both ends of a glass tube which operate as a hot-cathode in a stable discharge condition, having a fluorescent material layer on the inside surface of the bulb, filled with a luminous gas therein, and which is illuminated with irradiation from discharge in the luminous gas, in which at least one gas of He, Ne, Ar, and Kr are filled in addition to Xe as the luminous gas in an amount that the percentage of additional gas volume to total gas volume exceeds 50%.
