Halogen bulbs
Halogen bulbs. Freshly-produced halogen light bulbs for vehicle headlights. The bulbs contain halogen gases which slow the loss of their metal filament and so extend their life. They are also coated in a thin layer of alloy. As well as lowering the amount of harmful ultraviolet radiation the bulbs produce, the alloy increases their efficiency by reducing the amount of heat they lose as infrared radiation.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of freshly-produced halogen light bulbs specifically designed for vehicle headlights. The bulbs, meticulously crafted at the renowned Siemens Osram Sylvania Laboratory in Beverly, Massachusetts, epitomize American industrial ingenuity and cutting-edge technology. What sets these halogen bulbs apart is their ingenious composition. Filled with halogen gases, they possess the remarkable ability to slow down the loss of their metal filament, thus significantly extending their lifespan. Moreover, a thin layer of alloy coats each bulb's surface. This serves a dual purpose: reducing harmful ultraviolet radiation emitted by the bulbs while simultaneously enhancing efficiency by minimizing heat loss as infrared radiation. The photograph exudes an aura of scientific exploration and innovation within the realm of electrical engineering and light research. It symbolizes how advancements in physics and energy have revolutionized not only the automotive industry but also our everyday lives. As we gaze upon this image captured in 2005, we are reminded that behind every technological marvel lies countless hours of meticulous research conducted by brilliant minds dedicated to pushing boundaries and improving our world. Science Photo Library has expertly immortalized this moment from Siemens Osram Sylvania Laboratory—a testament to human curiosity and progress that continues to illuminate our path forward.
