Title:
EXCIMER LAMP
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2009/028720
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An excimer lamp (I) comprises a discharge gas and electrodes for applying voltage to the discharge gas. The frequency F (MHz) of the voltage applied to the electrodes is regulated with respect to the pressure P (MPa) of the discharge gas so as to satisfy the following relation (I). F>0.764P-0.316 (I) Another excimer lamp (II) comprises a discharge vessel containing discharge gas therein and electrodes for applying voltage to the discharge gas. The concentration of the residual air in the discharge vessel is 2500 ppb or less. According to the excimer lamp (I), discharge at relatively low voltage, i.e., glow-like discharge can be maintained. Even if the discharge gas pressure increases, the radiation intensity of the excimer light can be increased without overtemperature of the excimer lamp. According to the excimer lamp (II), excimer light of higher output can be radiated.
