Abstract

An electrodeless fluorescent lamp includes a feedthrough structure extending from the exterior to the interior of the lamp which is constructed of a suitable material, e.g., platinum or a combination of platinum and rhodium, for directly connecting an interior EMI shield to ground. The feedthrough is also suitable for supporting an amalgam flag.
