AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing miniaturized excimer lamps face challenges in maintaining close contact between the inner electrode and dielectric, leading to potential peeling and instability in discharge, which affects lighting responsiveness and efficiency.
Method used
A band-shaped foil electrode with flattened and wedge-shaped edges is used, covered by a dielectric with an oval profile, ensuring close contact and minimizing thermal expansion, while maintaining a large discharge space for effective ultraviolet light emission.
Benefits of technology
The solution enhances lighting responsiveness and suppresses peeling between the electrode and dielectric, ensuring uniform light distribution and stability, even at low voltage, thus improving the efficiency of ultraviolet light emission.
