GAS DISCHARGE SOURCE OF LIGHT Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC H01J61/90 

FIELD: lighting equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to gas discharge radiators, is intended for use in the field of lighting technology and can be used for photogrammetric studies. Claimed gas-discharge light source comprises a gas-discharge chamber filled with working gas, formed with a gap of 0.05–0.2 mm relative to each other by two walls of optically transparent material, one of which is hole for the emission of radiation, and the opposite to it is the base wall. Cathode and anode are located between walls at opposite ends of the discharge gap and are connected to pulsed power source to which discharge initiator located inside gas discharge chamber on surface of base wall is connected. Thickness of the base wall is not less than 7–10 mm. Cathode and anode are rigidly fixed to the base wall, the initiator of the discharge being located between the cathode and the anode on the inner surface of the base wall. Discharge initiator can be made in the form of a graphite layer, a reflector can be attached to the base wall, and the radiation output window can be made composite.

EFFECT: increasing intensity of light and providing reusable of part of the design of gas-discharge light source.
