Method And Apparatus For Heat Pipe Cooling Of An Excimer Lamp

View page
US Patent:
6747419, Jun 8, 2004
Filed:
Jul 3, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/189167
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA
Zoran Falkenstein - Foothill Ranch CA
Assignee:
Ushio America, Inc. - Cypress CA
International Classification:
H05B 4116
US Classification:
315248, 313238
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method and apparatus for heat pipe cooling of an excimer lamp. In one embodiment, a heat pipe is used to dissipate heat from an excimer lamp. The heat pipe is in direct contact with at least one electrode of the excimer lamp. In one embodiment, heat is transferred through the heat pipe to a cooling point that is electrically isolated from the lamp. In one embodiment, dissipation of heat from the cooling point is done by conventional means. In one embodiment, the heat pipe is on the inside of the lamp. In another embodiment, a heat pipe is attached to the outside of an excimer lamp. In another embodiment, two heat pipes are used, one on the inside and one on the outside of an excimer lamp. In yet another embodiment, a heat pipe is used with a flat lamp.

Hybrid Sealing Technique

View page
US Patent:
6817918, Nov 16, 2004
Filed:
Jun 8, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/877880
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA
Randal S. Kincade - Irvine CA
Steven Osowski - Wildomar CA
Assignee:
Ushio America, Inc. - Cypress CA
International Classification:
H01J 900
US Classification:
445 26, 445 27
Abstract:
The present invention is a hybrid sealing technique. According to one or more embodiments of the present invention, an unsealed lamp body is heated and a partial pinch seal is performed on a first side of the lamp body at an outer junction area. Then, a shrink seal is applied which completes the sealing process at the first side of the lamp body by sealing an inner junction area on the same side of the lamp body. The present invention retains the benefits of the shrink seal, but alleviates the difficulty associated with holding the electrode assemblies in place when performing a traditional shrink seal. In addition, the machine which holds the electrode assemblies in place is greatly simplified.

Non-Oxidizing Electrode Arrangement For Excimer Lamps

View page
US Patent:
6971939, Dec 6, 2005
Filed:
May 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/857069
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA, US
Zoran Falkenstein - Rancho St. Margarita CA, US
Assignee:
Ushio America, Inc. - Irvine CA
International Classification:
H01J017/16
US Classification:
445 46, 445 48
Abstract:
A non-oxidizing electrode arrangement for an excimer lamp that is formed by coating an electrode of the lamp with a layer of protective layer that prevents the electrode from oxidizing. The protective layer is preferably transparent and possesses a low permeability for oxygen (e. g. , silicon oxide, magnesium fluoride, calcium fluoride). The interior of the excimer lamp is evacuated to a pressure level that is lower than the pressure level surrounding the excimer lamp at any time during the non-oxidizing electrode formation process in order to assist in preventing the excimer lamp from fracturing.

Method For Arc Attachment Stabilization

View page
US Patent:
7116053, Oct 3, 2006
Filed:
Jan 7, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/031317
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA, US
Andre Piotrowski - Oceanside CA, US
Assignee:
Ushio America, Inc. - Cypress CA
International Classification:
H01J 61/067
H01J 13/28
US Classification:
315108, 315109
Abstract:
A method of stabilizing an arc between electrode tips in a high pressure arc discharge lamp is provided comprising initially creating an arc between the pair of electrodes during a start-up phase of the lamp by supplying power to the lamp for a first period. The method then transitions the arc to attach itself between the tips of the electrodes by removing the power supplied to the lamp for a second period and then resupplying power to the lamp after completion of the second period. The first and second periods for respectively initially supplying and removing power are preferably selected based on either an elapsed period of time, the measured operating lamp voltage, or the measured lamp pressure. Once the arc becomes attached to the tips of the electrodes in this manner, the arc will remain stabilized between the electrode tips during operation of the discharge lamp.

Lamp And Getter For Removing Gaseous Impurities

View page
US Patent:
20020101158, Aug 1, 2002
Filed:
Nov 7, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/011268
Inventors:
Murli Theegala - Chino Hilis CA, US
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA, US
International Classification:
H01K001/54
H01J017/24
H01J019/70
US Classification:
313/557000, 313/553000
Abstract:
The present invention has a lamp/getter assembly which reduces or eliminates mechanical and chemical wearing of the filament/leads in a lamp. One or more getters are formed across the filaments of the lead wires of a lamp during construction. During the cooking and sealing off process, the mechanical integrity of the lead wire/filament geometry is maintained by the effect of the getter structure. After the sealing process, the lamp is operated at lower than operating voltage and the getters operate to remove impurities. When the lamp is then operated at normal voltage and temperature, the getter melts and breaks.

Low Operating Temperature Light Source

View page
US Patent:
20030111947, Jun 19, 2003
Filed:
Dec 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/017286
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA, US
International Classification:
H01J005/50
H01J005/58
US Classification:
313/318080
Abstract:
The present invention provides a low operating temperature bulb and a method for manufacturing the bulb. In one embodiment, the second bulb of the double bulb is affixed to the second base using an adhesive which forms a seal as it cures. In one embodiment, two surfaces of the second bulb are affixed to the second base with an adhesive. In another embodiment, the second base extends beyond the outer surface of the second bulb. Thus, a lip is formed around the double bulb which can be clasped to hold the second bulb in place. In yet another embodiment, three surfaces of the second bulb are affixed to the second base with an adhesive. A groove in the second base accepts the end of the second bulb. Thus, the interior surface, exterior surface and end surface of the second bulb are affixed to the second base.

Single Ended Discharge Light Source

US Patent:
20030111958, Jun 19, 2003
Filed:
Dec 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/017285
Inventors:
Holger Claus - Lake Forest CA, US
Randal Kincade - Irvine CA, US
Alexandra Anghelus - Buena Park CA, US
International Classification:
H01J017/18
H01J061/36
US Classification:
313/625000
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for a single ended discharge light source. In one embodiment, both leads of a discharge lamp enter from the same side of the lamp. In one embodiment, the leads pass through a base. A bulb is positioned over the base to form a lamp wherein both leads enter the lamp from the same end. In one embodiment, the base is made of glass. In another embodiment, the bulb is made of glass. In one embodiment, the thermal expansion coefficient of the bulb and the base are greater than 1.0*10 -6/K. In another embodiment, the thermal expansion properties of the material used for the leads closely matches the material used for the base. In one embodiment, the power of the discharge lamp is less than 50 watts. In another embodiment, the end of the bulb furthest from the base is a lens.
