The excimer lamp disclosed by the invention, in particular to a narrow linewidth excimer lamp, has the advantages of good monochromaticity, high output power, good stability and reliability and the like by adding the dielectric film with the filtering function outside a high electric field area of the excimer lamp, and is beneficial to widening the application field of the excimer lamp.
The structure of the excimer lamp of the present invention will be specifically described below in several embodiments.
Any one of the first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 has a filtering function, which can effectively remove other stray spectra except the main output wavelength (for example, ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 222 nm) in the output spectrum of the excimer lamp. Furthermore, any one of the layers is an antireflection film to effectively enhance the transmittance of the output light with the dominant wavelength in the output spectrum of the excimer lamp. The surface of the antireflection film can have concave-convex shapes so as to improve the light extraction rate.
Alternatively, both the first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 may have the filtering function and may also function as the antireflection film.

The first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 may be integrally provided.
Similar to embodiment 1, the first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 may be configured to have functions of a filter and an antireflection film. In such a case, the first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 may be integrally formed continuous dielectric film layers.
Alternatively, one of the first dielectric film layer 5 and the second dielectric film layer 6 may be provided with a function of a filter and an antireflection film, and the other may be a high-reflection film.
In the above embodiments 1 and 2, the light-transmitting container 1, 1' may be a quartz tube having a sealed space therein, the discharge gas 2 is sealed in the sealed space, and the gas in the quartz tube can be protected by the sealed environment formed therein. In practice, the shape of the quartz tube may be various, such as one or a combination of two or more of a cube, a cuboid, a cone, an ellipsoid, a square, a rectangle, a circle, an ellipse, a trapezoid, a triangle, and the like, which is not limited in the present invention.
In the above embodiments 1 and 2, the discharge gas 2 in the light-transmitting container 1 is ionized in the high-voltage or high-frequency electric field, and emits light of a specific wavelength. In the embodiment, the discharge gas 2 may be helium He, neon Ne, argon Ar, krypton Kr, xenon Xe, radon Rn, fluorine F, chlorine Cl2And bromine Br, and the like.

In practice, the materials of the electrodes 3 and 4 include one or a combination of two or more of Ni, Ti, Cr, Pd, Pt, Au, Al, and ge-Ni, but are not limited thereto.
In the above embodiments 1 and 2, the dielectric film layers 5 and 6 are disposed on the outer surface of the light-transmitting container 1 for absorbing light other than the main wavelength, thereby improving the monochromaticity of the excimer lamp. When the excimer lamp is implemented, the first dielectric film layer 5 can be an antireflection film, so that the transmittance of output light with main wavelength in an output spectrum of the excimer lamp, which is emitted from the light-transmitting container 1, can be effectively enhanced, and the output power of the device is improved; the second dielectric film layer 6 can be an antireflection film or a high-reflection film, wherein the main function of the antireflection film is similar to that of the first dielectric film layer 5, and the antireflection film is mainly used for improving the light extraction efficiency of the device so as to improve the output power of the device; and when second dielectric film 6 is the high reflection film, can be with incidenting the light reflection of second dielectric film 6 to make most light all from first dielectric film 5 outgoing, can effectively promote the directionality of device output light, be one-way light-emitting, be applicable to specific application scenario.
