Except for the Philips Master HPI 250W/745 BU, the DX coating on the probe-start MH lamps is redundant, as it radiation isn't noticeable in Na-Sc chemistry, as the scandium mask the DX emission with its own emission. With tri-band lamps, there is almost no red emission after the sodium D line, so the DX coating here acts as a fourth band. |

In most MH lamps that have lithium, lithium comes from the quartz as an impurity. |

Ok, but for new MV arc-tubes (well, those that were made in 2005 or so), they purified the quartz? Lithium should also appear in those lamps if it is accidental. Like the new 100w DX lamp at top, I haven't seen the 670 nm line yet in any MV lamp. So, I can only assume, more than likely, lithium is placed in M-H arc-tubes on purpose. |

There is some discussion here at one of Stan's pictures about this subject, why lithium don't appears in the spectrum of mercury lamps, if most MH lamps contains it as an impurity from the quartz, and I don't know where it is located. I think that it have to do with the presence of halides or halogens inside the arctube. |
