NOTE: ASee pages 5 and 6.
BLamps with a 0.5 mm aperture provide 1.4 times higher radiant intensity than lamps with a 1.0 mm aperture. (See page 8.)
CLamp life end is defined as the point when light output at 230 nm falls to 50 % of its initial value or when output fluctuation exceeds 0.05 % (p-p).
DA pulse voltage higher than this value must be supplied to start reliable lamp discharge. (See Figure 5 on page 9.)
EOperating life may differ depending on environmental operating conditions (vacuum atmosphere). It is recommended that these lamps be used in an oil-free environment.

An Example for optics of See-through type
SEE-THROUGH TYPE
The see-through type electrode structure enables
straight-line arrangement of the halogen lamp, deuterium
lamp, optical system and optical passage. This simplifies
optical design of UV-VIS spectrophotometer etc., and
eliminates loss of light amount caused by the half mirror.

NOTE: FThe heater current during pre-heating is extremely high, so if the cable between the lamp and power supply is too long, the voltage supplied to the lamp will be too low due
to a voltage drop in the cable.
The power supply for the heater should be designed to supply the specified voltage at the lamp input terminal.
GRecommended operating voltage is 3.5 V ± 0.5 V.
HDuring lamp operation a discharge current flows into the filament so no external power supply is needed to maintain the filament temperature.
IWe recommend using Hamamatsu dedicated power supplies in order to obtain full performance from our deuterium lamps. (See pages 7 and 9.)

L2D2 Lamps (Deuterium Lamps)
POWER SUPPLY
Applications using L2D2 lamps require a very stable light output, so using a
Hamamatsu dedicated power supply is recommended to operate these lamps.
Our dedicated power supplies use a constant-current circuit and
constant-voltage circuit that deliver stable and reliable lamp ignition.
Two types of power supplies are available: AC input (100 V to 240 V) type
C9598 and 24 V dc input type M9596. Please select the power supply that
matches your application.

LAMP HOUSING
These lamp housings are designed for Hamamatsu L2D2 lamps with a mounting
flange. Despite being low cost and compact, these lamp housings also function
as efficient heat radiator housings to allow stable L2D2 lamp operation.
The window and mounting surface of these lamp housings are finish-machined
and have tapped holes, making it easier to install them in equipment.
These lamp housings are ideal for designing photometric equipment that uses
L2D2 lamps.
E9522: For L6301-50
E9558: For L7296-50
* Custom lamp housings for see-through type lamps (L6999-50, L9030-50) are also available.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
■Spectral Distribution
■External View
Deuterium lamps emit high intensity light in the UV range at wavelengths
shorter than 400 nm. Light intensity on the short wavelength side is
determined by the window material used.

1Non-projecting type uses the side of the cylindrical glass bulb as the
light-emission window. This type allows effective use of emitted light
since it requires less space and has wider directivity since there is no
projection.
2Projecting type uses a flat glass attached to the tip of the projection on
the bulb.
3Long-nose projecting type uses an MgF2 window and is ideal for
vacuum ultraviolet applications. This type is used with the tip of the
long-nose window inserted into vacuum equipment.

Figure 2 shows the transmittance of various window materials.
UV light at wavelengths shorter than 190 nm attenuates greatly due to its
absorption by oxygen. To obtain the fullest performance in window
transmittance, it is recommended that the inside of the equipment be
filled with nitrogen or vacuum-evacuated to eliminate this absorption
effect.

1UV glass
UV glass has a higher ultraviolet transmittance than normal optical glass
(borosilicate glass). It has the longest cut off wavelength of 185 nm
among the three types. However the generation of ozone is lower than
other window material types, it is not necessary to have special
anti-ozone treatments.
2Synthetic silica
Light intensity of deuterium lamps is determined by the aperture (light
exit) size. Figure 3 shows typical light intensity distributions for lamps
with different aperture sizes. At the same input current and voltage,
lamps with a 0.5 mm aperture provide 1.4 times higher intensity than
lamps with a 1.0 mm diameter aperture. The half width of spectral
distribution also becomes narrower with a smaller aperture size.
Using 0.5 mm aperture lamps is recommended in applications where
higher intensity is required or where light must be irradiated onto a very
small area.

Synthetic silica is obtained by fusing a silica crystal that is artificially
grown. Although its cut off wavelength is 160 nm, it contains less
impurities than fused silica, and transmittance at 200 nm has been
improved by approx. 50 %.
3MgF2
MgF2 is a crystallized form of alkali metal halide that has an excellent
ultraviolet transmittance, a low deliquescence and is used as window
material for vacuum ultraviolet applications. Its cut off wavelength is

L2D2 Lamps ( Deuterium Lamps)
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
■Construction
3Light output stability
Figure 4 shows an external view and internal structure of a deuterium
lamp. The anode is covered with ceramic to prevent abnormal discharge.
The cathode uses a highly durable electrode that ensures minimum wear
over a long operating life. Since deuterium lamps utilize the positive
column of arc discharge, the cathode is shifted sideways from the optical
axis and an aperture is located in front of the anode to obtain high
intensity. The aperture plate placed between the anode and cathode may
be used as an auxiliary electrode for reliable lamp ignition.

●Drift
Drift refers to variations in light output over a long period of time that
are caused by changes in thermal electron emission characteristics
of the cathode, changes in gas pressure inside the bulb, and
contaminants on the window. Drift is usually expressed in variation
per hour. In the case of Hamamatsu L2D2 lamps, it takes at least 10
minutes to 15 minutes until the inside of the lamp reaches thermal
equilibrium after discharge starts, so pre-heating for 20 minutes to
30 minutes is required.
●Fluctuation
Fluctuation refers to the peak-to-peak variation in light output over a
short period of time. Hamamatsu L2D2 lamps deliver high stability
with fluctuation down to 0.005 % (p-p).
Fluctuation greatly depends on changes in cathode electron
emission capability that might be due to cathode deterioration and
other factors. Hamamatsu L2D2 lamps maintain initial small
fluctuations even near the end of the guaranteed lamp life.

●Fluctuation in light output
Life end is defined as the point at which the fluctuation in light output
exceeds 0.05 % (p-p).
●Drop in light output
Life end is defined as the point at which the total emitted energy
drops to 50 % of the initial value.

■Terminology
■Power supply
1Solarization
A deuterium lamp power supply usually includes the following three
sections.
●Constant current power supply
●Trigger power supply
●Heater power supply
The aperture plate located between the anode and cathode can be used
as an auxiliary electrode to make sure that discharge starts without fail.
Transmittance of light through UV glass and fused silica gradually
decreases as it is used over a long period of time. This is caused by a
drop in transparency of the glass resulting from contaminants adhering
to the inner wall of the glass bulb and the effect of ultraviolet rays. In
worst cases, the glass becomes cloudy and the lamp service life is
shortened. The loss of transmittance due to ultraviolet rays is called
"solarization" and occurs more markedly at shorter wavelengths.
Synthetic silica, however, is highly resistant to this solarization.
Lamps with an MgF2 window emit strong UV light. If they are used in
air, a thin film will be deposited on the window by CVD (chemical
vapor deposition) that might reduce the transparency of the window.
To avoid this problem, the lamps should be used in a vacuum or
nitrogen atmosphere.

2Discharge starting voltage
When the cathode is sufficiently heated and ready for arc discharge,
applying a pulse trigger across the anode and cathode will start
discharge. This discharge starting voltage is typically 350 V (400 V at
most) for 30 W lamps. However since the discharge starting voltage
rises with the lamp operation time, applying a voltage of 500 V dc to
600 V dc is recommended for reliable trigger discharge each time.
The discharge starting voltage varies according to the trigger method
and trigger constant.

When using the above circuit to operate a deuterium lamp with a 0.5 mm

OPERATING TEMPERATURE
HANDLING PRECAUTION
To obtain high stability and long operating life, adequate care
must be paid to operating conditions including the lamp operating
temperature. As the ambient temperature (Ta) rises, the lamp
bulb temperature (Tb) also rises. When the ambient temperature
is +25 °C, the bulb temperature rises to about +245 °C to +290 °C.
The bulb temperature (Tb) varies according to the lamp type,
heater voltage and lamp housing. Hamamatsu L2D2 lamps are
designed to operate at an optimal lamp temperature when used
at room temperatures. However, to maintain high stability over a
long period of time, comply with the operating temperature range
shown in Table 1.
1. Deuterium lamps emit ultraviolet rays which can be
harmful to eyes and skin. Do not look directly at the
emitted light or allow direct exposure to skin. Always
wear protective glasses or goggles and clothing when
operating the lamps. (Refer to JIS T 8141 or equivalent
safety standards).
2. Since the bulb wall temperature reaches a high
temperature (over 200 °C) during lamp operation, do not
touch it with bare hands or bring inflammable objects
near it.
3. Do not apply vibrations or mechanical shocks to the lamp.
These might cause light output stability to deteriorate.
4. Graded sealing of synthetic silica and MgF2 window
On bulbs using synthetic silica or MgF2 window, the
window is formed by so-called "graded sealing" which
connects different glasses with slightly different expansion
rates. Since the mechanical strength of the seams of this
graded sealing is low, use caution when securing the lamp
so that no force is exerted on those seams during use.
5. Before turning on the lamp, wipe the bulb and window
gently using alcohol or acetone. Do not handle the lamp
with bare hands. Dirt or smears on the window will cause
a significant drop in ultraviolet transmittance.
6. High voltage is used to operate these lamps.
Use extreme caution to prevent electrical shock.

Ta: Temperature measured at a position 2.5 cm (1 inch)

Tb: Temperature on the bulb wall (cathode side)
As the ambient temperature (Ta) rises, the cathode temperature
increases, resulting in evaporation of the cathode. If the ambient
temperature (Ta) drops, the gas pressure inside the lamp bulb
lowers and the gas and ion kinetic energy increases. This causes
spattering of the cathode electron emitting materials. In both
cases, the gas inside the bulb is rapidly consumed so that the
lamp stability and radiant intensity drop, drastically shortening the
operating life.
To ensure stable operation of L2D2 lamps, care must be used
when installing the lamps so that the bulb wall temperature (Tb)
will not exceed +300 °C.
Lamps are warranted for a period of one year from the date
of shipment. If a lamp is found to be defective within this
warranty period, Hamamatsu will replace the defective lamp
without charge. (This warranty is limited to replacement of
the defective lamp.) Even if within the warranty period (one
year), the warranty shall not apply to cases where the lamp
operation time has exceeded the guaranteed life, or the
trouble was caused by incorrect operation or natural or
man-made disasters.
DISPOSAL OF LAMPS
When disposing of the used lamp, take appropriate
measures in compliance with applicable regulations
regarding waste disposal and correctly dispose of it
yourself, or entrust disposal to a licensed industrial waste
disposal company.
In any case, be sure to comply with the regulations in your
country, state, region or province to ensure the used lamp
is disposed of legally and correctly.
