533.915, 533.9.072, 533.932 The characteristics of xenon barrier-discharge excilamps have been calculated with the use of a onedimensional hydrodynamic model in the approximation of a nonlocal electric field. It has been shown that a two-peak mode of operation of the barrier discharge is realized in xenon excilamps. The 172-nm radiation of molecules prevails in the radiation of excilamps; the 147-nm resonance radiation makes no more than 1% of the overall radiation. The radiation intensity of xenon excilamps and their optical efficiency vary inversely on varying the parameters: the radiation intensity of a lamp falls, whereas its optical efficiency increases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
