Description

Pulse vacuum ultraviolet lamp with adjustable pulse width
Technical Field
The invention relates to a pulse vacuum ultraviolet lamp with adjustable pulse width, which can be used as a vacuum ultraviolet light source in the fields of analytical instruments, basic scientific research, biochemical engineering, electronic manufacturing and the like, and belongs to the technical field of electronics.
Background
The vacuum ultraviolet lamp is a device capable of emitting vacuum ultraviolet light with the wavelength of 100 ‒ and 200 nm, and has wide application in the fields of analytical instruments, basic scientific research, biochemical engineering, electronic manufacturing and the like. The vacuum ultraviolet lamp generally uses direct current discharge, radio frequency magnetic induction discharge, microwave discharge, pulse discharge and other modes to excite gas discharge to generate plasma, then electrons in the plasma collide to excite neutral gas atoms to generate excited state atoms or excimer molecules, and the excited state atoms or excimer molecules radiate vacuum ultraviolet light when spontaneously transiting to a ground state. The main luminescent medium gases are hydrogen (121.6 nm), krypton (123.9 nm/-146 nm), argon (105.9 nm/-126 nm) and xenon (147.6 nm/-172 nm). The traditional small vacuum ultraviolet lamps are mostly in direct current discharge and radio frequency magnetic induction discharge modes. The direct current discharge vacuum ultraviolet lamp excites luminous medium gas by using direct current discharge between the two electrodes, and the transmittance of the vacuum ultraviolet lamp is reduced due to the fact that metal atoms sputtered by the metal electrodes are deposited on the surface of the crystal window, so that the service life of the vacuum ultraviolet lamp is shortened. The RF magnetic induction discharge vacuum ultraviolet lamp is also called an electrodeless vacuum ultraviolet lamp, and the core structure of the RF magnetic induction discharge vacuum ultraviolet lamp is a glass or quartz bulb sealed with luminous medium gas and a coil wound outside the glass or quartz bulb. The vacuum ultraviolet light generated in the bulb is output by a crystal window (such as magnesium fluoride or lithium fluoride window) that is transparent to the vacuum ultraviolet light. The excitation power supply is a radio frequency power supply, and when radio frequency current flows through the coil, an induced magnetic field is generated, and the induced magnetic field excites luminous medium gas in the bulb to generate plasma so as to generate vacuum ultraviolet light. The RF magnetic induction discharge vacuum ultraviolet lamp has no metal electrode in the bulb, so that the inner surface of the window sheet outputting vacuum ultraviolet light has no deposition of metal vapor, and the window sheet has long service life. The frequency of the radio frequency is typically 13.56MHz or higher, and lower radio frequencies are difficult to ignite at low voltages. Because the traditional vacuum ultraviolet lamp is difficult to start, the vacuum ultraviolet lamp is generally continuously operated and continuously radiates vacuum ultraviolet light, however, the transmittance of the crystal window sheet is gradually degraded under the irradiation of the vacuum ultraviolet light, so that the luminous flux output by the vacuum ultraviolet lamp is gradually reduced, and the service life of the vacuum ultraviolet lamp is affected to a certain extent. The lifetime of magnesium fluoride window is typically thousands of hours, whereas the lifetime of lithium fluoride window is only tens of hours.
Philip Diehl in 1882 has obtained U.S. patent (US 255497) for an induction incandescent lamp which uses electromagnetic induction to transfer energy through a coil outside one bulb to another coil sealed inside the bulb, thereby overcoming the problem of leakage of the bulb electrodes, and is the prototype of the electrodeless lamp. General electric John Anderson in 1967 and 1968 applied for lighting electrodeless lamps (US 3500118 and US 3521120), patent US3500118 applied for lighting electrodeless lamps using a coil wound around a ferrite ring, a ring-shaped lamp tube passing through the ferrite ring, mercury vapor filled in the lamp tube, fluorescent substances coated on the inner wall of the lamp tube, and induced magnetic field generated by applying a radio frequency of 100 ‒ kHz to the coil, wherein the induced magnetic field excites plasma luminescence of mercury under the action of ferrite enhancement. The lighting electrodeless lamp described in patent US3521120 consists of a coil wound ferrite annular column and a hollow spherical bulb, the central space of which is matched with the ferrite column, the bulb is filled with argon gas of 2 ‒ Torr and mercury of 40 ‒ 50 mg, and the inner wall of the bulb is coated with fluorescent substances. The two electrodeless lamps of John Anderson are the original structures of the currently internationally popular lighting electrodeless lamps, however, practical commercial lighting electrodeless lamps were not developed by Philips company until 20 years later. In 1990 Philips corporation introduced an electromagnetic induction lighting system operating at a radio frequency of 2650 kHz, the principle of operation being similar to US3500118A and US 3521120. Currently 2650 kHz radio-frequency excited visible light wave band electrodeless lamp is a mature commercial lighting product, and consists of a radio-frequency generator, a coupler and a bulb. The rf generator generates a 2650 kHz rf current and the coupler is a ferrite core wound around a coil whose function is to enhance electromagnetic induction. The bulb is typically a glass bulb, which is internally filled with a certain amount of inert buffer gas and a solid mercury agent for generating the luminescent medium mercury vapor. The inner surface of the bulb is coated with a layer of fluorescent material for converting ultraviolet light into visible light. Because of large-scale commercial development, the structure and the performance of a radio frequency generator and a coupler of a 2650 kHz radio frequency excited visible light wave band electrodeless lamp are deeply optimized and innovated, the device has an instantaneous starting function, and the cost of accessories is also greatly reduced, but the current 2650 kHz radio frequency excited visible light wave band electrodeless lamp technology is not used for generating vacuum ultraviolet light.
