  2. Halogen lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_lamp

    A halogen lamp (also called tungsten halogen, quartz-halogen, and quartz iodine lamp) is an incandescent lamp consisting of a tungsten filament sealed in a compact transparent envelope that is filled with a mixture of an inert gas and a small amount of a halogen, such as iodine or bromine. The combination of the halogen gas and the tungsten ...

  3. Mercury-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury-vapor_lamp

    The small diagonal cylinder at the bottom of the arc tube is a resistor which supplies current to the starter electrode. A mercury-vapor lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses an electric arc through vaporized mercury to produce light. [1] The arc discharge is generally confined to a small fused quartz arc tube mounted within a larger soda lime ...

  4. Xenon arc lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_arc_lamp

    A xenon arc lamp is a highly specialized type of gas discharge lamp, an electric light that produces light by passing electricity through ionized xenon gas at high pressure. It produces a bright white light to simulate sunlight, with applications in movie projectors in theaters, in searchlights, and for specialized uses in industry and research ...

  5. Metal-halide lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-halide_lamp

    Metal-halide lamp. Metal halide lamp bulb (type /O with arc tube shield) A common spectrum of metal halide lamps in North America. Metal halide floodlights at a baseball field. Metal halide lamps were invented by Charles Proteus Steinmetz in 1912 and are now used in almost every city in the world. A metal-halide lamp is an electrical lamp that ...

  6. Sodium-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium-vapor_lamp

    An HPS lamp that isn't entirely off. A sodium-vapor lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses sodium in an excited state to produce light at a characteristic wavelength near 589 nm. Two varieties of such lamps exist: low pressure and high pressure. Low-pressure sodium lamps are highly efficient electrical light sources, but their yellow light ...

  7. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

    A germicidal lamp uses a low-pressure mercury-vapor glow discharge identical to that in a fluorescent lamp, but the uncoated fused quartz envelope allows ultraviolet radiation to transmit. Fluorescent lamp tubes are often straight and range in length from about 100 millimeters (3.9 in) for miniature lamps, to 2.43 meters (8.0 ft) for high ...

  8. Infrared lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_lamp

    The development of quartz halogen linear lamps allowed much higher power density up to 200 watts/inch of lamp (8 w/mm), useful for industrial heating, drying and processing applications. [3] By adjusting the voltage applied to incandescent lamps, the spectrum of the radiated energy can be made to reduce visible light and emphasize infrared ...

  9. Ceramic metal-halide lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_metal-halide_lamp

    The ceramic metal halide is a variation of the metal-halide lamp which is itself a variation of the old (high-pressure) mercury-vapor lamp. A CMH uses a ceramic arc tube instead of the fused quartz arc tube of a traditional metal halide lamp. Ceramic arc tubes allow higher arc tube temperatures, which some manufacturers claim results in better ...
