“Sources of Light”
– “rapid oxidation of a combustible material”
– heat and light are emitted in the process
Flame – visible light-emitting part of a fire
– complete combustion → blue color
– incomplete combustion → yellow color
Fire
Bunsen burner flames
(1) yellow flame, air closed
900 °C
…
(5) blue flame, air open
1600 °C

“Sources of Light”
Flames from a charcoal fire
750-1200 °C
Candle flame
1100 °C
Incandescence is the emission of visible light from a hot
body due to its temperature.
– means “to glow white”
– heat and light are emitted in the process
– incomplete combustion → yellow color
Dr. Mike Nofziger 2010
“Sources of Light”
Incandescence produces a blackbody spectrum of energy:
– described by the Planck function
– light output is only a function of temperature, T
– the higher T, the more light out
– the higher T, the peak shifts to the blue
– our SUN (T=6000K) and stars are “perfect” blackbody
radiators
Dr. Mike Nofziger 2010
“Sources of Light”
Tungsten (“Incandescent”) Light Bulbs
– tungsten filament
– resistive to the flow of electrical current
– electrical energy converted to thermal energy
– filament heats up, incandesces (emits light)

Tungsten-halogen Light Bulbs
– tungsten filament
– trace amount of halogen vapor, iodine or bromine
– bulb made of fused quartz, >1atm pressure
– tungsten deposited back onto the filament
(halogen cycle)
– longer lifetime of the filament

Tungsten bulbs: Light output
– watts or lumens?
– we “see” lumens, not watts
– maximum of 683 lm/W at 555 nm
New labeling by 2011

“Sources of Light”
Tungsten bulbs: Light output
– a 100W light tungsten bulb converts only 10W into
visible light
– 90 watts are “wasted” as heat
– 50-70% of the world’s total sales of lighting are
incandescent bulbs
– need more efficient sources of light
– the sale of tungsten light bulbs will (?) be banned
in the US by the year 2014

“Sources of Light”
Fluorescent Lamp—old style
- tube is typically straight, 1.5-8 ft. long
- tube filled with low-pressure Hg vapor
- pressure ≈ 0.3% atmospheric
- inner surface coated with phosphor coatings
- use large, heavy magnetic ballasts
Output spectrum of a typical “cool-white” lamp
Dr. Mike Nofziger 2010
“Sources of Light”
Compact Fluorescent Lamp “CFL”—new style
- tube is a shaped in a spiral
- inner surface coated with a phosphor coating
- use lightweight, electronic ballast
- standard Edison screw base (replaces light bulbs)
- long-term cost savings compared to tungsten light bulbs
- very little heat produced compared to tungsten light bulbs
- lifetime depends on how you use it…. ?

“Sources of Light”
LED – Light Emitting Diode
– solid-state, semiconductor p-n junction
– GaAs, AlGaAs, GaP, AlGaInP, GaN, InGaN,etc.
– 3mm, 5mm, or 8mm dia. plastic packages
Low-Power LED’s
1-20mA of electrical current
 “on/off indicators”
High-power LED’s
 500mA to >1A
Lumileds, Osram, Cree
 Lighting!!
 Replace incandescent bulbs

White-Light LED’s: General Approaches
Reference
Dr. Mike Nofziger 2010
“Sources of Light”
White-Light LED’s (3 phosphors, “tri-phosphor”)
– AlGaInN LED is the source of light
– emits light in the near-UV spectral region
– 380-430 nm
– 3 phosphor coatings on top
– Europium-based red and blue phosphors
– Copper and aluminum doped zinc sulfide
green phosphor
Reference
– Color-mixing more easily controlled to produce
a pure white light.
– Example: CREE
Dr. Mike Nofziger 2010
“Sources of Light”
White-Light LED’s (1 phosphor)
– GaN semiconductor LED is the source of light
– emits blue light 450 – 470 nm
– Yellow phosphor coating on top
– Cerium-doped YAG: Y3Al5O12:Ce3+
– light is emitted by scintillation (no afterglow)
Example: CREE

Arc Lights
- 2 electrodes separated by a small gap containing a gas
- flow of electricity between the electrodes ionizes the gas
- light produced from the ionized gas
 Carbon-rod electrodes, air gap, no glass housing:
→ “Carbon Arc Lamp” (no longer used, historical)
“arch” “arc”
 Tungsten electrodes, quartz envelope, gas:
neon, argon, xenon, krypton, mercury, metal halide
→ “High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lamps”
