Krypton Gas in High Performance Lighting

 

One major application of krypton is in specialized electric lamps and tubes that take advantage of its light emission properties:

 

 

  • Fluorescent lighting – Krypton-filled tubes offer increased luminosity efficiency and lamp lifespan.

  • Headlamps – Krypton HID and arc lamps produce bright white illumination from automobile headlights.

  • Photographic flash lamps – Krypton provides rapid discharge and uniform spectral output for photography.

  • Lasers – KrF excimer lasers utilizing krypton fluoride mixtures emit 248nm UV pulses.

  • Spectroscopic light sources – Krypton discharge tubes provide calibration standards for spectrometry.

  • Aviation obstruction lighting – Krypton lamps offer durability in airport towers and wind turbines.

 

 

Krypton’s ability to efficiently produce bright white light makes it a great emissive fill gas for advanced illumination technologies.
