  • Patent number: 7141920
    Abstract: A gas discharge lamp has a gas discharge vessel filled with a gas filling suitable for a gas discharge which emits VUV radiation, with a phosphor coating containing a downconversion phosphor. The downconversion phosphor has, in a host lattice, a pair of activators of a first lanthanoid ion and a second lanthanoid ion; a sensitizer selected from the group formed by the thallium(I) ion, lead(II) ion and bismuth(III) ion; and samarium(II) ion co-activator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 30, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 28, 2006
    Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics, N.V.

  • Patent number: 6917153
    Abstract: A luminophore capable of down conversion has a host lattice with a pair of activators of a first lanthanoid ion and a second lanthanoid ion and a co-activator of a third lanthanoid ion. A gas discharge lamp fitted with a gas discharge vessel filled with a gas filling which is suitable for a gas discharge which emits VUV radiation, and has a luminophore coating containing the down conversion luminophore is environmentally friendly and has good lamp efficiency.
