This paper reviews electrodeless lamp technology. The lamp has very long life time but very high cost compared to conventional lamps such as fluorescent lamp. For optimizing the overall system in performance and cost, power supply as well as lamp is very important. First, this paper describes various electrodeless lamps and its market condition. Then, a lot of circuit technology for constructing the power supply is reviewed and circuit characteristics are discussed.

An electric power efficiency of electrodeless fluorescent lamp has big relativie propertye of gas in lamp, gas pressure, lamp formation, ingredients of magnetic substance and shape and action frequency etc. We used magnetic substance that open self-examination material of electrodeless fluorescent lamp antenna. Ferrite that is used in this experiment was Mn-Zn type. Coill turn was changed from 13th to 13th turn to recognize brightness change of lamp by winding number. Optical equipment that used in an experiment was used to measure brightness (LS-100). When an electrodeless fluorescent ]amp was made using and T company's PE22, was it showed the highest brightness. As number of winding is increased the brightness increased, and starting characteristic became good.

In this paper, We have measured the luminous flux variation of electrodeless fluorescent lamp system reducing a power source to 70% and applying a short interruption caused by the power failure. So we can understood that the protective device for apparatus of power sources is important thing to control electrodeless fluorescent lamp system.

In this paper, the emission properties of electrodeless fluorescent lamp were discussed using the inductively coupled plasma. To transmit the electromagnetic energy into the chamber, a RF power of 13.56 [MHz] was applied to the antenna and considering the Ar gas pressure and the RF electric power change, the emission spectrum, Ar I line, luminance were investigated. At this time, the input parameter for ICP RF plasma, Ar gas pressure and RF power were applied in the range of 10∼60 [mTorr], 10∼300 [W], respectively. From emission intensity and lumnance intensity results, the mode transition from E-mode to H-mode was observed. This implies that this method can be used to find an optimal RF power for efficient light illumination in an electrodeless fluorescent lamp.

An experiment was carried out to evaluate the emotion and sensibility evoked from the different color temperatures(CCT) of electrodeless HID (ELHID) lamp. For this purpose, three ELHID lamps and a metal halide lamp were used as the experimental light sources and thirty Korean adjectives related to the lighting affectiveness were selected for the evaluation. The results showed that ELHID lamps induced different sensibilities according to their color temperature. In particular, 6500 K ELHID was similar to metal halide which has the CCT of 5600 K in the evaluation. Based on the results, we suggested some Korean adjectives and their corresponding English ones which are thought to be suitable for the verbal descriptions of ELHID lamps.

A prototype electrodeless sulfur lamp was developed and investigated the spectroscopic characteristics. The emission spectra of $S_2$ in the microwave-discharged eletrodeless sulfur lamp (ESL) were studied at various input power. The emission spectra of the ESL shift to longer wavelength with increasing of the input power. We have shown that this is due to the self reversal effect in the high pressure gas discharge. We also show that the self reversal effect increases as the rotation of the discharged bulb. The spectral distribution of the ESL shifts about 45 nm toward visible region from UV region due to the rotation of the lamp bulb.

We developed the correlated color temperature (CCT) control technique for electrodeless sulfur lamp (ESL) by adding a few milligrams of NaI into sulfur discharge bulb. Nal produces intense Na D-line that changes the CCT of the ESL. We can adjustthe CCT in the range of 8,400 K to 3,600 K. Color rendering index can be maintained between 79 and 90 for the adjustable range of the CCT. the NaI helps the ESL dischargeable at below 0.5 kW of forward microwave power into the bulb. We have shown that this technique did not cause reduction of luminance compared to electrodeless elemental sulfur lamp.

Ferrite that is used in this experiment was Mn-Zn type. We have examined resistance kind, impedance, Q-factor's frequency characteristic by ferrite. Impedance, resistance and capacitance did not show difference in start frequency 2.65 [MHz] but there was difference quantity. We could know Q-factor's difference according to material, and Q-factor's is important part of antenna design.

The RF inductive discharge of inductively couples plasma (ICP) continues to attract growing attention as an effective plasma source in many industrial applications, the best known of which are plasma processing and lighting technology. Although most practical ICPs operate at 13.56 [MHz] and 2.65 [MHz], the trend to reduce the operating frequency is clearly recognizable from recent ICP developments. in and electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the use of a lower operating frequency simplifies and reduces cost of RF matching systems and RF generators and can eliminate capacitive coupling between the inductor coil and plasma, which could be a strong factor in wall erosion and plasma contamination. In this study, electric and optical characteristics of electrodeless fluorescent lamp by changing ferrite position is discussed.
