A fluorescent lamp or a fluorescent tube is a low pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor which produces short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb to glow.
Halogen light bulbs are a type of incandescent lamp. The difference is that the filament inside the lamp is enclosed in a small quartz capsule which contains a halogen gas. Halogen lamps burn brighter (and hotter), and last longer than traditional incandescent bulbs.his made it impossible to use an energy-efficient fluorescent light bulb in a standard (non-fluorescent) light fixture. To solve this problem, manufacturers began offering CFL lamps with miniature built-in ballasts and standard screw bases which allowed the bulb to be used in any standard fixture.
