How Xenon Arc Lamp Work?

A xenon arc lamp is a special type of gas discharge lamp. Xenon arc lamps produce light by passing electricity through ionized xenon gas at high pressure. It produces a bright white light that closely mimics natural sunlight, which extends its applications into the film, and daylight simulation industries.

What does xenon arc lamp do?

Xenon-mercury short-arc lamps have a bluish-white spectrum and extremely high UV output. These lamps are used primarily for UV curing applications, sterilizing objects, and generating ozone.
