Abstract

An indium oxide coating is used on the inside surface of a vapor electric discharge lamp, such as a fluorescent lamp, to reduce the starting voltage. The coating is especially effective at low temperatures, but also reduces the voltage even at room temperatures. It is particularly useful also in lamps using certain mixed inert gases with the mercury, since the mixtures used generally require a higher starting voltage than the ordinary fluorescent lamps containing argon and mercury vapor.
