Abstract: An ideal quartz glass for a wafer jig for use in an environment having an etching effect is distinguished by both high purity and high resistance to dry etching. To indicate a quartz glass that substantially fulfills these requirements, it is suggested according to the invention that the quartz glass is doped with nitrogen at least in a near-surface area, has a mean content of metastable hydroxyl groups of less than 30 wt ppm and that its fictive temperature is below 1250° C. and its viscosity is at least 1013 dPa·s at a temperature of 1200° C. An economic method for producing such a quartz glass comprises the following method steps: melting an SiO2 raw material to obtain a quartz glass blank, the SiO2 raw material or the quartz glass blank being subjected to a dehydration measure, heating the SiO2 raw material or the quartz glass blank to a nitriding temperature in the range between 1050° C. and 1850° C. in an ammonia-containing atmosphere, a temperature treatment by means of which the quartz glass of the quartz glass blank is set to a fictive temperature of 1250° C. or less, and a surface treatment of the quartz glass blank with formation of the quartz glass jig.

Abstract: A discharge lamp is disclosed comprising an enclosed discharge vessel for the generation of an electrical discharge and a casing made of glass which surrounds the discharge vessel. In order to achieve as constant properties as possible over the service life of the lamp, it is proposed that the glass material of the casing be doped with sodium in a concentration of at least 10 ppm, and preferably at least 30 ppm. According to a further embodiment, it is proposed that other alkali metals (except for sodium) be contained in a maximum concentration of 25 ppm. Surprisingly, by the appropriate choice of the outer bulb, not in direct contact with the actual discharge, the diffusion of sodium from the discharge vessel is reduced. In addition to this, the material of the outer bulb has a reduced inclination to crystallization.
