Advanced Radiation Corporation's series of direct current Mercury Short Arc Lamps for photolithography represents the state-of-the-art in design, manufacture, and performance of high intensity ultraviolet sources. These lamps provide intense radiation corresponding to the photo-sensitivity of most presently available photoresist materials. The lamps satisfy the demands of arc stability and long reliable life necessary for economic manufacture of integrated circuitry in todays sophisticated electronics industry.

The point source configuration of the short arc lamp makes this series of lamps, ideally suited for photochemistry, flourescent microscopy, micro-film enlargement, optical instrumentation, and other applications requiring high intensity ultraviolet radiation.
