Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter includes a fluorescent lamp and particularly a cold cathode fluorescent lamp that can be employed as a light source for a LCD backlight unit for a television, a computer, a display, and the like. The fluorescent lamp can include a couple of electrode units located opposite to each other at each end of a tube, a couple of welding beads sealing both the tube and the couple of electrode units, and a filler gas located in the tube. Each of the electrode units can include an emitter electrode that is configured with a crystalline silicon semiconductor material having an electrical conductivity or configured with other semiconductor materials, and can include a concave portion formed thereon. The electrode units can prevent blackening on an inner surface of the tube by avoiding the occurrence of spattering. Thus, the fluorescent lamp using the electrode units can enjoy a long life, high reliability, easy manufacture, and the like.

The diameter of glass powder ranges from 0.5 μm to 1 μm. Weight percentage of the metal powder is from 60% to 98%. The conductive composition could be applied to manufacture the electrodes of a flat lamp.
Abstract:
A low-pressure discharge lamp having a tubular glass lamp vessel 10, on an outer surface of which conductor layers are formed as electrodes 21 and 26. The ultrasonic solder dipping layers 31 and 36 are formed at both ends of the vessel 10 as conductor layers. The end surfaces of the glass lamp vessel are blasted and ultrasonic solder dipping layers are formed on the blasted surfaces 41 and 46 by ultrasonic solder dipping. Conductor layers form external electrodes 21 and 26, which are in contact with the glass surface more strongly. A low-pressure discharge lamp having the conductor layers of a uniform thickness can be mass-produced at low cost.
