A sodium-vapor lamp is a type of gas discharge lamp that uses sodium vapor to produce light. These lamps are known for their efficiency and distinct yellow-orange color, which is a result of the emission spectrum of sodium. They are commonly used for street lighting and in industrial applications due to their high luminous efficacy and longer lifespan compared to incandescent lamps.
