Abstract: A discharge lamp includes an envelope, a fill which emits light when excited disposed in the envelope, a source of excitation power coupled to the fill to excite the fill and cause the fill to emit light, and a reflector disposed around the envelope and defining an opening, the reflector being configured to reflect some of the light emitted by the fill back into the fill while allowing some light to exit through the opening. The reflector may be made from a material having a similar thermal index of expansion as compared to the envelope and which is closely spaced to the envelope. The envelope material may be quartz and the reflector material may be either silica or alumina. The reflector may be formed as a jacket having a rigid structure which does not adhere to the envelope. The lamp may further include an optical clement spaced from the envelope and configured to reflect an unwanted component of light which exited the envelope back into the envelope through the opening in the reflector. Light which can be beneficially recaptured includes selected wavelength regions, a selected polarization, and selected angular components.

Abstract: A light source apparatus excites an electrodeless lamp bulb with energy of microwaves generated from a magnetron. A microwave transmission line is improved so that microwaves can be transmitted efficiently and the light source apparatus can be miniaturized. A first cylindrical member is disposed coaxially with a direction in which microwaves generated from the magnetron are transmitted, and a second cylindrical member is disposed at the center of the first cylindrical member, thereby forming a coaxial transmission line. A coaxial oscillator is formed from the position at which the microwaves are generated to a position of 1/4 of the wavelength of the microwave. Thus, a special waveguide can be removed.

Abstract: A lamp for providing visible radiation includes tellurium or a tellurium compound in the fill. This substance is present in an amount such that when the fill is excited with sufficient power, substantially all of the radiation resulting from tellurium is emitted at wavelengths exceeding 400 nm. When tellurium is added to a sulfur or selenium based lamp for emitting visible radition, the spectrum is shifted towards the red region.
