Light Sources using Energy Transfer from Excimer to Line Radiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Efficient energy transfer between neon excimer molecules and hydrogen has been found. A small, high gas density light source has been developed, emitting entirely on the hydrogen 2p-l s transition at I 21 .567nm (Lyman-a). Light output densities of lOW/cm2 are obtained. Electron beam energy conversion efficiencies of lO% have been measured.

Silent discharges for the generation of ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet excimer radiation
Excimers, known from electron beam experiments and UV lasers, can also fomi in silent discharges, a discharge type used for large-scale ozone production. In this high pressure non-equilibrium discharge a dielectric barrier leads to the formation of localized short-lived microdischarges. Inside the microdischarge filaments energetic electrons can excite rare gas (RG) atoms which, under appropria...
متن کاملCytotoxicity and mutagenicity of low intensity, 248 and 193 nm excimer laser radiation in mammalian cells.
The cytotoxicity of 193 and 248 nm excimer laser radiation was compared to that produced by a germicidal lamp (predominantly 254 nm) using Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO), and a human diploid fibroblast line, AG-1522A. Excimer laser radiation at 248 nm (3.5 X 10(2) w/m2) and germicidal radiation (5.3 X 10(-5) w/m2) caused toxicity in both cell lines, with the AG-1522A cells (D37 = 7-8 J/m2) b...
متن کاملExcimer Lasers in Medicine
Introduction Excimer lasers emit light energy, short optical pulses at ultraviolet wavelengths, that results in a unique laser tissue interaction. This has led to an increasing number of studies into medical applications of these lasers in fields such as ophthalmology, urology, cardiology and neurology. The typical excimer laser is operated with a combination of a halogen (fluorine or chlorine)...

متن کاملPhotometric and clinical assessment of localized UVB phototherapy systems for the high-dosage treatment of stable plaque psoriasis.
BACKGROUND Ultraviolet-B (UVB) light sources are widely used for the safe and effective treatment of inflammatory skin conditions. The recent commercial introduction of fiber-coupled UVB phototherapy systems facilitates the selective exposure and treatment of localized psoriasis plaques while permitting the safe use of high-dosage treatments. OBJECTIVE In this study, the performance character...
