A lamp having a fin provided in a periphery of a metal base. The fin includes a first surface close to a bright spot of a light-emitting tube and a second surface far from the bright spot on an opposite side of the first surface. A distance between a first inner edge of the first surface and a bright spot plane as a plane orthogonal to a center axis of the metal base including the bright spot is shorter than a distance between the bright spot plane and a first outer edge of the first surface. A distance between the first inner edge and the first outer edge of the first surface is not shorter than a distance between a second inner edge and a second outer edge of the second surface.

A radiation driven light source comprises laser and focusing optics. These produce a beam of radiation focused on a plasma forming zone within a first container containing a gas (e.g. Xe). Collection optics collects photons emitted by a plasma maintained by the laser radiation to form a beam of output radiation. First container is enclosed within a hermetically sealed second container. Any ozone generated within the second container as a result of ultraviolet components of the output radiation is completely contained within the second container. Second container further filters out the ultraviolet components. Microwave radiation may be used instead of laser radiation to form the plasma.
