Abstract
A sterilizing lamp includes a discharge tube, a ground electrode part, a high-voltage electrode part, a safety cover, and a light shield. The discharge tube is filled with discharge gas for generating excimer light. The ground electrode part and the high-voltage electrode part generate discharge in the discharge tube to excite the discharge gas. The safety cover is made of an electrically insulating organic material and covers the high-voltage electrode part. The light shield is made of an electrically insulating inorganic material and intervenes between the discharge tube and the safety cover to block the excimer light traveling from the discharge tube toward the safety cover.
