Fluorescent lamps are high-efficiency lamps that use electrical discharge through low-pressure mercury vapor to produce ultraviolet (UV) energy, which is then transformed into visible light. The UV ...
A light source consisting of a long glass tube containing mercury in a partial vacuum. Available in many lengths and several diameters, the tube is lined with a fluorescent phosphor. When the ...
The shift from fluorescent lamps to more energy-efficient light-emitting diodes is expected to have a decarbonizing effect. If LEDs replace fluorescent lamps by 2027, carbon dioxide emissions can ...
