The thin phosphor looks really great here! But it was a disadvantage in that the colour uniformity from the lamp is not good - too much light from the arc and filament goes directly through the thin coating without being properly blended. Because of that, one by one manufacturers started blending the phosphor together with silica powder which makes the coating denser and more opaque. GEC seems to have been one of the last to change over.
