Mercury xenon lamps from LTI consist of a spherical or ellipsoidal envelope made of quartz glass, which can withstand high thermal loads and high internal pressure. For ultimate image quality, only the highest-grade clear fused silica quartz is used. It is typically doped, although not visible to the human eye, to absorb UV radiation that generates ozone during operation. The operating pressures are tens of atmospheres at times, with surface temperatures exceeding 600 degrees C.
