- Abstract
- The structure of the water-cooled quartz mercury lamp, its operation, quality of radiation, brightness, and source size limitations are first described, followed by a discussion of the power-supply equipment, both a-c. and d-c. Applications of the lamp are as follows: Motion picture projection, with single lamps and with several sources. Motion picture photography, both black-and-white and color, and the application to very high-speed motion picture photography. For black-and-white photography the lamp is quite satisfactory. For color work the relatively limited red radiation may call for external methods, either in the use of fluorescent reflectors or a highly red-sensitive emulsion, to make up for this deficiency. Film printing. Because of the relatively high output in the blue-violet and ultraviolet regions this lamp may prove a very satisfactory source, especially where advantage is taken of the ultraviolet radiation. The following additional applications, of secondary interest to the motion picture industry, are also discussed: photo-enlarging, photoengraving, and searchlights.
