What is an electric lamp?
The term "electric lamp" is a general one. It refers to a slice of technology that produces light from electricity, and how it does this can vary. The two basic types of lamp are the incandescent type and the fluorescent type. There are other types, like a light emitting diode type, which is solid state kind, and a carbon arc lamp, but we usually use the term for the two common types mentioned. Sometimes we use the term to include the whole fixture. A table lamp might be referred to as an electric lamp in some cases. But as regards the "regular" usage, the lamp will work in one of two ways. In one, a resistive element which will heated by the electric current to the point of incandescence, where it will emit light. The filament gets really hot and glows, and you already know that this describes the incandescent lamp. In the fluorescent lamp, a gas-filled tube it electrified and the gas is ionized with the subsequent emission of light. This is the fluorescent lamp, and many of them are set up with secondary emission characteristics to increase and/or change the spectrum of light emitted.

Who invented the heat lamp?
Sir Humphrey Davy invented the electric carbon arc lamp in 1801. Goerges Claude invented the neon lamp in 1911.
What is a carbon arc lamp?
An arc lamp is a lamp that produces light by an electric arc. The carbon arc light, which consists of an arc between carbon electrodes in air, invented by Humphry Davy in the early 1800s, was the first practical electric light.
What is an arc lamp?
An arc lamp is a general term for a class of lamps that uses an electric arc or voltage arc to create light. You've seen the bright light given off by electric arc welding, and the idea of the electric arc is the principle behind an arc lamp.
How did the Arc Lamp change the world of lighting?
The Arc Lamp is the first commercially successful form of electric lamp. It changed the world of lighting by setting the trend on carbon electric lights.
Who invented the gas arc lamp?
Humphry Davy

What is an arclight?
An arclight is a lamp which produces light by generating an electric arc across an enclosed gas.
