  • Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs
    Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs What is a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) bulb? A CFL bulb is a type of fluorescent bulb that screws into a standard light socket, such as a lamp or ceiling light fixture. CFLs use much less energy and last up to 10 times longer than standard light bulbs. What is in a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) bulb? A CFL bulb is made of glass, a ceramic and metal base, a luminous powder called phosphor, and a small amount of mercury. How much mercury is contained in a CFL bulb? Manufacturers report that the amount of mercury contained in a CFL bulb is five milligrams, which is less than two ten-thousandths of an ounce. The mercury could be in the form of an invisible vapor or in a bead the size of the period at the end of this sentence. A mercury fever thermometer contains about 100 times more mercury than a CFL bulb. Is it harmful is it to be in the room where a CFL bulb has broken? The amount of mercury vapor that is released from one broken bulb is not enough to make anyone sick. However, it is best to avoid any exposure to mercury. We recommend that you ventilate the room air to the outdoors by opening a window or a door and leave the room for a few hours before cleaning up the broken bulb. How should I clean up a broken CFL bulb? It is not necessary to hire a professional to clean up the bulb. By following the directions below, you can safely clean up a broken CFL bulb.

Applications can be severe service (cold, vibration, accessibility), architectural (color, black light), industrial (appliances, germicidal, safety, low voltage, infrared/heat), transportation (aircraft, railroad, marine), and infrastructure (airport, emergency building lighting, traffic signal, sign). Lamp listings are grouped into market/application sections, each containing a “family” of lamps by application or commonalities (such as base, shape, spectral distribution, color temperature), to assist in selection or interchange. Ordering Lamps To order lamps use the GE Order Code, Description and Case Quantity columns. If a lamp is colored BLUE it is stocked in Europe, GREEN is Europe and North America, BLACK is North America only. Otherwise procurement must be through an international distributor or your GE sales representative. North America, European and International sales offices are in the appendix.

As Ludwig Wittgenstein wisely said “knowledge in the end is based on acknowledgement”. Hence, writing this dissertation would be meaningless without thanking everyone who has contributed to it in one way or the other. First and foremost, my thanks are due to my advisor Dr. Franky So, without whose guidance and encouragement none of this work would have been possible. He has been a great advisor and has always been patient through the long paths of struggle finally leading towards significant results. This work is a fruit born out of many stimulating discussions with Dr. So and my group members Jaewon Lee, Kaushik Roy Choudhury, Doyoung Kim, Dongwoo song, Cephas Small, Alok Gupta, Galileo Sarasqueta, Jegadesan Subbiah, Mike Hartel, Mikail Shaikh, Song Chen, Pieter De Somer, Verena Giese, Daniel S.
