Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9921214A1] A low-pressure mercury discharge lamp of the invention comprises an envelope (1) that encloses a discharge space (2) in a gastight manner. The envelope is provided with a luminescent material (4) which is excitable with radiation of a wavelength of 254 nm. The envelope (1) is further provided with a further luminescent material (5) which has an excitation spectrum of which the value for a wavelength of 436 nm amounts to at least 10 % of that at a wavelenght of 254 nm, and which further luminescent material has an emission spectrum with a maximun in a wavelength range from 580 to 720 nm. The lamp of the invention has in a dimmed state of operation a color point of which the value of the x-coordinate is higher than in the nominal state of operation.
