High intensity metal halide discharge lamp performance, specifically the generated luminous flux and light color content, depends critically on the arc tube design. Factors influencing the design and consequent lamp efficacy include : lamp size, geometry, arc tube composition, fill chemistry, electrode design and excitation modes. Shaping of Polycrystalline Alumina(PCA) can be realized by conventional ceramic processes. Several processes are applied nowadays. Well-known in the ceramic high pressure field for decades are the pressing and the extrusion method. Newly developed slurry and precious forming technologies give the one-body seamless tubes, which improve thickness uniformity and lighting performance. Now, we reported some optical properties with different arc tube structures of ceramic metal halide lamps.

고압방전램프에는 고압수은램프, 고압나트륨램프와 메탈핼라이프램프가 있다. 메탈핼라이드램프는 가장 효율 좋을 램프들 중 하나이며 고효율, 고연색성과 집광능력이 좋다. 이 연구의 목적은 AC 100∼277의 프리볼트입력용 전자식안정기를 개발하여 메탈핼라이드(MH70W)를 점등시키는 것이다. 개발된 전자식안정기는 프리볼트입력용컨버터, 플라이백컨버터와 하프브리지인버터, 이그나이터와 보호기 그리고 제어기로 구성되어 있다. 실험 결과 개발된 전자식안정기는 프리볼트입력(AC 100∼277V)에 따라 메탈핼라이드램프(MH70W)가 매우 잘 점등되었다.

A Ceramic Metal-halide lamp is achieved by adding multiple metals to a basic mercury discharge. Because the vapor pressure of most metals is very much lower than mercury itself, metal-halide salts of the desired metals, having higher vapor pressures, are used to introduce the material into the basic discharge. The metal compounds are usually polyatomic iodides, which vaporize and subsequently dissociate as they diffuse into the bulk plasma. Metals with multiple visible transitions are necessary to achieve high photometric efficiency and good color. Compounds of Sc, Dy, Ho, Tm, Ce, Pr, Yb and Nd are commonly used. The maximum visible efficacy of a Ceramic Metal Halide lamp, under the constant of a white light source, is predicted to be about 450lm/W. This is controlled principally by the chemical fill chosen for a particular lamp. Current these lamps achieve 130lm/W and these life time are the maximum 16,000[hr]. So factors of performance lower are necessary to improve lamp performance. In this paper, we analyzed factors of performance lower by accelerated deterioration test. The lamp was operated with short duration turn-on/turn-off procedure to enhance the effect due to electrode sputtering during lamp ignition. The tested lamp that was operated with a longer turn-on/off(20/20 minutes) showed blackening, changed distance between electrodes and lowered color rendering & color temperature by losses of Dy at 421.18nm, I at 511nm, T1 at 535nm and Na at 588nm compared with the new lamp.

The purpose of this paper is to increase the lamp efficacy by filling the optimal Nitrogen gas pressure in the outer enclosure of metal halide lamp. This study presents a new model of Langmuir in the outer enclosure of discharge lamp. In this paper, in the first place, the diameter of Langmuir sheath and the total gab loss were calculated. Secondly, the each gas loss was computed if the arbitrary gas pressure is filled, With the calculated data, flash over which affects the lamp efficacy, lamp life and color rendering was considered. In case of the established discharge lamp, the gab pressure has been filled by experience only roughly. The gas loss is converted into the radiation output. Therefore, the lamp efficacy is improved by reducing the gas loss.

A novel design technology for a high frequency electronic ballast for metal-halide discharge lamps is proposed. A PFC technique is adopted to get unit power factor and output frequency alteration technique is adopted to avoid acoustic resonance. For characteristics evaluation, the designed electronic ballast is presented using normalized parameter. To reduce losses of the ballast. ZVS control technique is adopted and the maximum flux density of magnetic core for inductor should be kept lower. The electronic ballast for 250[W] metal-halide discharge lamp is implemented and 96[%] efficiency and low conducted EMI level are accomplished.

This study purposes are improvement of system (lamp & ballast) efficacy with and optical characteristics through the developed ceramic arc tube. The designed electronic ballast is substituted for conventional magnetic ballast. These electric signal and optical, thermal characteristics through the improving efficacy of lighting system compared with conventional magnetic ballast. properties of lamp by driving method is researching in ballast. Particularly, electronic ballasts, which improved against weakness of Magnetic Ballast, are researching and applying to control of ceramic metal-halide lamp. but One major limitation is the acoustic resonance problem in CMH lamps at high-frequency operation. In order to avoid acoustic resonance, driving frequency decided 21[kHz]. Before discharge in this paper. The PSpice simulation result obtained sufficient voltage gain and the ignition voltage obtained over 3[kV] at 75[kHz]. After discharge, driving voltage obtained approximately 90[Vrms] at 21[kHz].

This paper presents the conductance model at high frequency of the Ceramic Metal Halide Lamp and the designing method of the electronic ballast with the LCC resonant tank type by using that model. Conductance model is based on a physical phenomenon in the discharge tube of the lamp and model constants of conductance model are obtained by Least Squares Method. After equivalent impedances are determined by the conductance model, The LCC resonance tank is designed by using the equation of the lamp power. Simulation result using PSpice software and experimental results show that the conductance model in this paper is very useful to design the electronic ballast at high frequency for the Ceramic Metal Halide Lamps.
