High pressure mercury vapor arc-discharge lamp HBO lamps (H for Hg or mercury; B is the symbol for luminance; O for unforced cooling
The most popular mercury lamp for optical microscopy is the HBO 100 (a 100-watt high-pressure mercury plasma arc-discharge lamp), which has the highest radiance and mean luminance, due to its very small source size, of the commonly used lamps of any mercury lamps are short arc lamps in which the luminous arc burns in an atmosphere of mercu- ry vapor at high pressure. Their main characteristics and benefits are: · High radiance · Multiline spectrum · High radiant power in the UV and the visible range · AC and/or DC operation
