Patent #2,463,743 for a hydrogen tube designed by H. Howard Cary and Warren Baxter during their time at National Technical Labs, a precursor to Beckman Instruments. This tube was designed for use in UV spectrophotometers to provide a consistent source of ultraviolet radiation. It improved on previous designs by being smaller, but avoiding the problems with decreased tube life that usually accompanied a decrease in size.
