The energy saving light-bulbs are usually fluorescent. Neon is a type of fluorescent light bulb.
In a compact fluorescent light bulb, electrical energy is transformed into light energy through the excitation of mercury vapor atoms inside the bulb. Some electrical energy is also transformed into heat energy due to resistance in the bulb's circuitry and the phosphor coating on the bulb.
In an incandescent light bulb, the wire is heated until it glows.In a fluorescent light bulb, atoms are excited, which means the electrons are raised to higher enerty levels. When they fall back, they emit light.In an incandescent light bulb, the wire is heated until it glows.In a fluorescent light bulb, atoms are excited, which means the electrons are raised to higher enerty levels.

A fluorescent bulb primarily absorbs ultraviolet (UV) light energy. Inside the bulb, electricity excites mercury vapor, producing UV light, which then interacts with a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb. This interaction converts the UV light into visible light, allowing the bulb to illuminate.
Replacing a fluorescent light bulb with an LED can save energy, last longer, produce better quality light, and be more environmentally friendly.
A fluorescent light bulb contains a gas which produces UV light when it comes in contact with electricity. Contrary to a normal light bulb this does not create any heat and is far more energy efficient.
The swirly light bulb is called a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL). It is a type of energy-efficient light bulb that produces light by using electricity to excite the gas inside the bulb to create illumination.
An incandescent bulb is less energy efficient than a fluorescent bulb because it produces more heat than light, wasting energy. Fluorescent bulbs are more energy efficient as they produce less heat and more light. Additionally, fluorescent bulbs have a longer lifespan than incandescent bulbs, lasting up to 10 times longer.
The element in a fluorescent light bulb that absorbs UV light and releases visible light energy is a phosphor coating on the interior surface of the bulb. When UV light hits the phosphor coating, it emits visible light, creating the illumination we see in fluorescent bulbs.
Incandescent and halogen light bulbs use more energy than compact fluorescent lights and LED lights. Fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts use more energy than fluorescent lamps with electronic ballasts.
Fluorescent light bulbs are typically more energy-efficient and produce more light for the same amount of power compared to incandescent bulbs. So, a fluorescent light bulb may appear brighter than an incandescent bulb with the same power rating.
They are called CFL light bulbs. CFL stands for Compact Fluorescent Light .
