Hydrargyrum medium-arc iodide, or HMI®, is a mercury-halide gas discharge medium arc-length lamp with a multi-line spectra emission. The name implies that hydrargyrum, an archaic term for Mercury(Hg), is held as a vapour mixed with other rare halides in a quartz-glass envelope with two tungsten-coated electrodes of medium arc separation. Unlike traditional tungsten lighting units, HMI(R) s use ballasts to regulate and supply electricity to the lamp head via a header cable. The lamp operates not by heating a tungsten-based filament, but rather by creating an electrical arc between two electrodes within the bulb that excites the pressurized mercury vapour and provides phenomenal light output with greater efficiency than tungsten-based lighting units.  3, record 2, English, - hydrargyrum%20medium%2Darc%20iodide%20technology

History: In the late 1960s German television producers sought out lamp developer OSRAM to create a less expensive replacement for incandescent lights for the film industry.

Une lampe aux halogénures métalliques ou lampe à décharge à haute pression est une lampe très utilisée pour l'éclairage lors de la prise de vue au cinéma, ainsi que dans les vidéoprojecteurs de forte puissance. Moins courantes en éclairage théâtral, elles envahissent l'éclairage public car leur couleur plaît. On les utilise surtout pour les terrains sportifs, comme les terrains de tennis, badminton, football, hockey, etc. Elles sont aussi très utilisées dans les gymnases et [les] terrains intérieurs. On peut également s'en servir pour éclairer les stationnements, les chantiers de construction et même les routes, en particulier les ponts. Certaines d'entre elles sont connues sous le nom de HMI, acronyme de l'expression allemande «Hydrargyrum mittlere bogenlänge Iod» (traduit en anglais par : «Hydrargyrum medium-arc iodide»), marque déposée de la firme allemande Osram, mais d'autres dénominations existent pour cette même catégorie de lampes, chez Osram (HMP, HTI, HSR par exemple) et chez d'autres constructeurs (MSR, MSD, MSI chez Philips).  3, record 2, French, - technologie%20HMI

Inside the radio-wave lamp. An electronic oscillator linked to a small, coiled antenna produces radio waves much like a radio station. Electrons in atoms of mercury vapor absorb the radio waves, which excite the electrons to a higher "energy state". The electrons emit photons, or packets, of invisible ultraviolet light. A phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb absorbs the ultraviolet light, exciting electrons, which then emit visible light.  1, record 12, English, - radio%2Dwave%20bulb

Last week a small California company announced that next year, it plans to market the "E-(for electronic) Lamp, "a bulb that will be completely interchangeable with incandescents, use a quarter as much energy-and last a decade or more. The secret is a tiny radio-frequency generator in each bulb, transmitting energy to a surrounding cloud of mercury gas and in turn to the fluorescent coating. There are some 1. 5 billion light sockets in the United States; each incandescent that is replaced by an E-Lamp would save an estimated ton of carbon dioxide from electrical generating stations over the life of the bulb, a small step toward reducing emissions of greenhouse gases.  1, record 12, English, - radio%2Dwave%20bulb

Since the electronic components last indefinitely, the bulb should fail only when the phosphor deteriorates (or someone knocks the lamp off the table). And instead of burning out with a "pop," the new bulbs will gradually become less bright. Someday lamps and fixtures may have the electronic components built into their base, and consumers will just slip on a cheap, replaceable glass jacket containing the mercury and phosphor.  1, record 12, English, - radio%2Dwave%20bulb
