The Jelight Company, Inc. has developed a lamp called the Capillary Lamp. This special lamp with mercury, produces three times the intensity of 254nm of U.V. energy compared with the standard Double-Bore® lamp. The unique quality of the Capillary Lamp is that the entire arc is concentrated into a 1 or 2 mm capillary. This is beneficial for making the light additionally intense, uniform and stable. The actual detection of the light is from the end of the capillary and therefore it causes a detector to "view" the diameter of the arc instead of the width of the arc. The Capillary Lamp is available with an ozone free quartz window where vacuum U.V. lines are not desirable, or with a synthetic silica window for transmitting U.V..The Capillary Lamp is obtainable with other options such as one or two capillaries either 1 or 2 mm in diameter and various fill gases: argon, neon, helium, krypton, or xenon, and different phosphor coatings.
