2. Description of the Related Art In order to further improve the efficiency and color rendering of a high pressure mercury lamp, there is a lamp called a metal halide lamp in which a metal halide is added as a light emitting substance in addition to mercury. This metal halide lamp is a bulb made of translucent ceramics or quartz glass, in which mercury, a rare gas, NaI-ScI 3 and the like are enclosed together to form an arc tube, which is widely used for general lighting indoors and outdoors. It is used.

However, although this lamp has a high efficiency and a high color rendering property, the light emission color changes when the dimming lighting in which the brightness is sequentially changed is changed, and the luminous flux is activated in a short time at the time of starting. There is a drawback that you cannot do it.

The reason why the luminous flux does not rise in this short time is that
This is because it takes time for mercury and metal halides to evaporate.

Further, the dimming is difficult because when the lamp input is changed, the vapor pressure balance of the luminescent material in the lamp is disturbed and the color characteristics are changed. Explaining with an example in which NaI-ScI 3 is enclosed, NaI and ScI 3 have a low vapor pressure, whereas mercury has a high vapor pressure and is completely evaporated.

When the same lamp is lit with half the rated input, the spectral distribution as shown in FIG. 6 is obtained, and as seen from FIGS. 5 and 6, Hg (mercury) is completely evaporated in both. In the case of FIG. 6, NaI-S in the arc tube
The vapor pressure of cI 3 becomes very small because the temperature of the arc tube decreases. Therefore, the light emission of Na (sodium) and Sc (scandium) is significantly reduced, and almost only mercury light emission is caused, and the color characteristics are greatly changed, which is very uncomfortable.

Mercury is used as a buffer gas for maintaining the lamp voltage. In such a mercury-containing lamp, when the input is changed, the balance between the emission of mercury and the emission of other luminescent metals (Na and Sc) is achieved. The result is that dimming is not possible.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that in the conventional high pressure discharge lamp, when the input is changed, the balance between mercury and halide is lost and the color characteristics are largely changed, so that the desired dimming is achieved.
