Abstract: The invention is directed to a discharge device and a cathode for use in such a discharge device.
By providing a dielectric layer between a first and a second electrode, e.g. between a cathode and an anode, said dielectric layer having an opening aligned with a micro hollow of the first electrode, the light efficiency of the discharge device can be improved.

Abstract: A discharge device comprises

a discharge chamber containing a gas at a prescribed pressure;
a cathode mounted within said discharge chamber, said cathode comprising a conductor having a plurality of micro hollows therein, each of said micro hollows having dimensions selected to support a micro hollow discharge at said prescribed pressure;
an anode mounted within said discharge chamber and spaced from said cathode; and
electrical means for coupling electrical energy to said cathode and said anode at a voltage and current for producing micro hollow discharges in each of the micro hollows in said cathode.
