Abstract:
A mercury vapor discharge fluorescent lamp is provided having a phosphor layer that has a yttria-based red emitting rare earth phosphor. The phosphor layer is prepared from an aqueous phosphor slurry that is coated onto the inner surface of the glass envelope of the lamp, then baked in a lehring oven to vaporize or decompose non-phosphor components of the slurry to leave behind the finished phosphor layer. The phosphor slurry contains a non-ionizing thickener, preferably polyethylene oxide, but does not contain any calcium carbonate or carbonate salts. The phosphor layer includes a yttria-based red emitting rare earth phosphor.

An open end 7a of the sleeve 7 exceeds a forward end of the coil portion 4a, thereby protecting the coil portion 4a.
Abstract:
In a corner portion outside a display region of a face substrate which constitutes a face panel of a display device, an opening is formed. In the opening, a stem glass structural body which is configured by integrally forming an exhaust pipe on a center portion of a stem glass and by forming conductive leads in a peripheral portion thereof in an embedded manner, is fixed by welding using curing by heating. The exhaust pipe is evacuated and, thereafter, tipped off, thus realizing vacuum sealing of the inside thereof. A lead line is connected to a distal end of one conductive lead by welding and another end of the lead line is electrically connected with one end portion of the anode formed on an inner surface of the face substrate using a conductive adhesive agent. Further, a getter is mounted and fixed to another conductive lead line by welding.
