Abstract
Investigation was made ofthe characteristics ofXeCl (λ ~ 308 nm), KrC1 (λ ~ 222 nm) and Xci (λ ~ 253 nm) capacitive discharge excilamps. High efficiency of exciplex molecules and simple design have been obtained under capacitive HF discharge excitation. Cylindrical excilamps with radiation output through side surface ofthe cylinder and through one or two windows placed on the tube ends have been developed. High UV radiation power and electrical power deposition to fluorescence conversion resulted in efficiencies of up to 12%. The study of XeC1, KrCl and XeI excilamps have shown, that it is possible to create sealed-off samples with lifetime more than 1000 hours. The stability of output parameters ofthe capacitive discharge excilamps is studied and the mechanism of chlorine losses in low pressure halogencontaimng excilamps made of quartz was determined. The possibility of creation of capacitive discharge excilamps with short pulse duration was studied. In capacitive discharge cylindrical KrClexcilamp, at λ~222 nm the radiation pulse power up to 2.5 kW was obtained. Powerful radiation pulses 50 ns in duration were obtained at pulse repetition rate of 1 kHz.
