Patent number: 6683405Abstract: An electric lamp has an envelope with an inner surface and two electrodes located at each end of the envelope. The electrodes transfer electric power to generate ultraviolet radiation in the envelope which is filled with mercury and a charge sustaining gas. The inner surface of the envelope is pre-coated with an aluminum oxide layer to reflect ultraviolet radiation back into the envelope. A phosphor layer is formed over the aluminum oxide to convert the ultraviolet radiation to visible light. The phosphor layer is a mixture of four phosphors, namely, blue-luminescing Blue Halophosphate (BH), red-luminescing Yittrium Oxide (YOX), 2900K-luminescing Calcium Halophosphate, also referred to as Warm White Halophosphate (WW), and green-luminescing Zinc Silicate (ZS).Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventor: Brett A.

The inner surface of the envelope is pre-coated with an aluminum oxide layer to reflect ultraviolet radiation back into the envelope. A phosphor layer is formed over the aluminum oxide to convert the ultraviolet radiation to visible light. The phosphor layer is a mixture of three phosphors, namely, Barium Magnesium Aluminate, Cerium Gadolinium Magnesium Borate, and Calcium Halophosphor.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2000Date of Patent: March 25, 2003Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Kelly S.
