Abstract

Electrical and optical properties of ablative light sources are discussed. For the range of parameters studied, the energy balance shows that it is possible to obtain approximately one-third of the energy delivered to the lamp as radiative energy (in the 0.35–1.1-μ band); two-thirds are used in the buildup processes of the discharge. The over-all characteristics of ablative sources should permit useful technical applications.
