2. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

   A fluorescent lamp, or fluorescent tube, is a low-pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor, to produce ultraviolet and make a phosphor coating in the lamp glow.

3. Flat lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_lens

   The first, near-infrared, flat lens was announced in 2012 using nanostructured antennas. [2] It was followed in 2013 by an ultraviolet flat lens that used a bi-metallic sandwich. [3] In 2014 a flat lens was announced that combined composite metamaterials and transformation optics. The lens works over a broad frequency range. [6]

4. Fluorescent lamp recycling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp_recycling

   The amount of mercury in a fluorescent lamp varies from 3 to 46 mg, depending on lamp size and age. [4] Newer lamps contain less mercury and the 3–4 mg versions are sold as low-mercury types. A typical 2006-era 4 ft (122 cm) T-12 fluorescent lamp (i.e. F34T12) contains about 5 milligrams of mercury. [5]

5. Optical brightener - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_brightener

   Laundry detergent fluorescing under ultraviolet light. Optical brighteners, optical brightening agents (OBAs), fluorescent brightening agents (FBAs), or fluorescent whitening agents (FWAs), are chemical compounds that absorb light in the ultraviolet and violet region (usually 340-370 nm) of the electromagnetic spectrum, and re-emit light in the blue region (typically 420-470 nm) through the ...

6. Multifaceted reflector - Wikipedia

   Left to right: MR16 with GU10 base, MR16 with GU5.3 base, MR11 with GU4 or GZ4 base Line drawing of an LED MR16 lamp, with a heatsink rather than a reflector. A multifaceted reflector (often abbreviated MR) light bulb is a reflector housing format for halogen as well as some LED and fluorescent lamps.
