In 1879, Thomas Edison introduced the first incandescent lamp, using a carbon filament, marking the beginning of a major revolution in lighting technology. Although these early lamps had a short lifespan and low energy efficiency, they offered excellent color rendering, making them popular for many years. The next advancement came with halogen lamps, which improved upon incandescent bulbs by increasing light output while reducing energy use by about one-third. These lamps work by filling the bulb with halogen gases like iodine or bromine, allowing the tungsten filament to be "regenerated," thus extending its life and improving performance.
Metal halide lamps represent the third generation of lighting technology, following incandescent and halogen lamps. They are known for their high luminous efficiency, good color rendering, and longer service life. Unlike traditional fluorescent tubes, metal halide lamps use an arc discharge process that generates intense light and saves energy significantly—up to 90% more efficient than older models. These lamps are widely used in high-end applications such as automotive headlights, rear-projection TVs, and even in military and underwater operations due to their durability and brightness. Despite their advantages, metal halide lamps still have limited adoption in some regions. For example, in China, less than 2% of the 8 billion bulbs produced last year were metal halide lamps. This is partly due to the technical challenges involved in manufacturing low-power versions, as production below 50W is still not available domestically.
Halogen lamps, compared to standard incandescent bulbs, last much longer. Their design typically includes a small quartz glass tube filled with halogen gases. The key feature of halogen lamps is the "self-regeneration" of the tungsten filament. As the filament heats up, it evaporates, but the halogen gas reacts with the evaporated tungsten to form a compound that returns to the filament, effectively restoring it. This cycle allows the filament to remain intact for a longer time, resulting in a brighter and more efficient light source. Due to their compact size and focused illumination, halogen lamps are commonly used in areas requiring concentrated lighting, such as desk lamps or room lighting systems.
