The preferred embodiments are directed to discloses a metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp comprising a burner which is enclosed by an outer bulb. In the outer bulb samarium is provided.

An electrodeless discharge lamp with one or more stationary light emitting bulbs inside a common conductive shield to confine an electromagnetic excitation field provided by a plurality of sources. Each bulb can be excited by several electromagnetic radiation sources or by an individual electromagnetic radiation source. Tubular realization of the lamp, with two magnetron or transistor electromagnetic sources facing each other at the extremity of a tubular bulb, are particularly suitable for installation at the focal line of parabolic trough reflector. Some variants combine bulbs of different compositions, and excitation levels can be independently set to control the spectrum of emitted light.

A double-ended high intensity discharge lamp includes a luminous tube which comprises an inner tube and an outer tube. At least one electrical member is securely fastened inside the luminous tube and at least one illuminator supported inside the luminous tube with a distributor connected with the electrical member to receive power and supply the illuminator. The outer tube is another protective shield to stop spreading in explosion of the illuminator.

A high PAR maintenance rate type high pressure sodium lamp with an auxiliary starting switch is provided with an external glass tube and a discharge tube which is arranged at the center in the external glass tube and coaxial with the external glass tube. The surface of the discharge tube is provided with a metal lead. The left and right ends of an external glass shell are provided with pressure sealing plates which are fused and sealed through high temperature. The pressure sealing plates are internally provided with conductive sheets. One end of the discharge tube is connected with the conductive sheet of the left end through a left internal conductive support, and the other end is connected with the conductive sheet of the right end through an auxiliary starting switch component. According to the high pressure sodium lamp, the high pressure sodium lamp can be quickly lit up through a temperature controlled switch so that the high pressure sodium lamp has the advantages of being great in starting performance, great in lighting effect, high in stability, long in the service life, great in high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance and safe and reliable and is not liable to crack.

A double-ended ceramic metal halide lamp includes a luminous tube; at least two illuminators serially connected with each other deposed inside the luminous tube; and at least one ring-shaped retainers arranged between two illuminators to support the illuminators located along a central line of the luminous tube. A manufacturing method for a ceramic metal halide lamp includes following steps: (1) Arrange at least two serially connected illuminators inside an interior of a luminous tube; (2) Seal two ends of the luminous tube by a press sealing technique; and (3) Extract out the gas inside the luminous tube to form an eyelet at a central portion of the luminous tube.

A double-ended high intensity discharge lamp includes a luminous tube and reflective layer covering at a reflective portion provided on at least a portion of aid luminous tube for reflecting light emitted from an illuminator supported in the luminous tube towards the reflective portion to project towards another opposing side of the luminous tube.
