Abstract
This paper presents a review of the principal publications devoted to the study of the spontaneous radiation sources operating in the uv region and discusses the properties of a low-pressure glow discharge in binary mixtures of inert gases with halides. It has been demonstrated that for variation of the excitation parameters over a wide range more than 10% emission efficiencies are realized for exciplex molecules and thatXeCl* andKrCl* molecules are formed in the main by the harpoon reaction. The current-voltage characteristics of glow discharges in cylindrical, coaxial, and planar excilamps and the parameters of the radiation ofXeCl*,KrCl*, andXeF* molecules generated on excitation of inert-gas-halide mixtures by normal and high-voltage glow discharges are presented. It is pointed out that low-pressure glow-discharge excilamps enable one to use simple power supplies.
