ABSTRACT:
A discharge vessel for an electrodeless lamp having a pair of substantially parallel front and back walls. In one implementation, the front wall of the discharge vessel has a collimating structure, e.g a fresnel lens, for directing the light in a preferential direction such as in a flood light. In another implementation, the flat discharge vessel is quadrilateral and together with one or more quadrilateral excitation coils can be used as a backlight for a flat panel display. In yet another implementation, a cup-shaped discharge vessel with a collimating structure on the front wall is used in an electrodeless lamp for a task lighting such as a spot light.
