Abstract
Spectral, energy, and temporal characteristics of pulse discharge in xenon have been experimentally studied. Upon passing from an oscillatory regime to unipolar pulses of discharge current, the power of emission in the wavelength interval 200–350 nm increases, while the emission pulse full width at half maximum (FWHM) decreases. A quartz pulsed discharge lamp excited by a generator based on high-current high-voltage diodes radiates in the 200–350 nm interval at a peak radiant intensity above 65 kW/sr and at a pulse FWHM ∼ 2 μs.
