ABSTRACT:
A fluorescent lamp includes a light-transmitting envelope, means for generating a discharge within envelope, a discharge sustaining fill contained in envelope for emitting ultraviolet rays during the lamp operation and a phosphor layer coated on an inner surface of envelope. The phosphor layer converts the ultraviolet rays into visible light and ultraviolet radiation within a wavelength range of 320 nm to 410 nm so as to have radiant flux ratio of ultraviolet radiation of 5 to 50 percent of the entire radiant flux of the lamp.
