Abstract :
A family of small diameter (7 mm outer diameter) fluorescent lamps has been developed. This family includes hot cathode lamps which allow superior optical control due to their small size and high brightness as well as cold cathode lamps which have very low power consumption with efficacies greater than incandescent lamps
