Detailed Project Report on compact fluorescent lamps

 COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS
CODE NO. 6503

     The  fluorescent lamp is also a gaseous discharge lamp,  the `gas' being actually mercury vapour at low pressure. A large part of the light emitted by this discharge, however, falls in  ultra-violet  part of the spectrum and thus invisible; apart  of  this, glass will not transmit ultra-violet rays to any extent. So  that very  little  passes through to the outside of the  envelope.  In order  to arrive at a really efficient and economical  source  of light,  the   principle  of  fluorescence  was   introduced;   by fluorescence is meant the phenomenon arising from the capacity of certain  substances for absorbing short-wave radiations  and  re-emitting  them  as  radiations of a  longer  wavelength.  If  for convenience  we  refer to the emissions just beyond the  red  and blue  extremities of the spectrum by somewhat para  doxical  term "invisible light.

     In  practice this transformation is brought about by a layer of powdered material applied to the inside of the glass  envelops of  the Lamp; under normal conditions these powders appear to  be white.  This powder is fully irradiated by the ultra-violet  rays emitted  by the gas under the influence of the electric  current, and this, very briefly, is the principle on which the fluorescent lamp works.
