    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

    A flat lens is a lens whose flat shape allows it to provide distortion-free imaging, potentially with arbitrarily-large apertures. [1] The term is also used to refer to other lenses that provide a negative index of refraction. [2] Flat lenses require a refractive index close to −1 over a broad angular range.

    The first fluorescent light bulb and fixture were displayed to the general public at the 1939 New York World's Fair. The spiral CFL was invented in 1976 by Edward E. Hammer, an engineer with General Electric, [7] in response to the 1973 oil crisis. [8] Although the design met its goals, it would have cost GE about $25 million to build new ...

  7. Fluorescent-lamp formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent-lamp_formats

    Cross section of a typical fluorescent lamp with and without a reflector. Some lamps have an internal opaque reflector. Coverage of the reflector ranges from 120° to 310° of the lamp's circumference. Reflector lamps are used when light is only desired to be emitted in a single direction, or when an application requires the maximum amount of ...
