The light output and lumen maintenance of fluorescent lamps with or without a conductive film, are improved by coating the glass envelope or the conductive glass envelope with a thin transparent film of Al2O3. The alumina film is obtained from a coating of a binderless suspension of submicron size Al2O3 particles in lightly acidified water and has a thickness of 20 to 80 nanometers.
