The difference between the two light bulb technologies is that the old
incandescent bulbs used a thin filament which was heated when electric
current passed through it.
Thus, due to the heat it produced
light. On the other hand, cfl light bulbs, use a phosphor coted tube
filled with gas to produce light. When electric current passes through
the gas in the tube, it produces UV rays which excite the phosphor
coating and emit visible light.
