ABSTRACT:
A metal-halide high-pressure discharge lamp (1) with a discharge vessel (2) nd two electrodes (4, 5) has inside discharge vessel (2) an ionizable filling, which contains yttrium (Y) in addition to inert gas, mercury, halogen, thallium (Tl), hafnium (Hf), whereby hafnium can be replaced wholly or partially by zirconium (Zr), dysprosium (Dy) and/or gadolinium (Gd) as well as, optionally, cesium (Cs). Preferably, the previously conventional quantity of the rare-earth metal is partially replaced by a molar equivalent quantity of yttrium. With this filling system, a relatively small tendency toward devitrification is obtained even with high specific arc powers of more than 120 W per mm of arc length or with high wall loads. Thus, the filling quantity of cesium can be clearly reduced relative to a comparable filling without yttrium, whereby an increase in the light flux and particularly in the brightness can be achieved.
