In a wavelength converted semiconductor light emitting device with at least two wavelength converting materials, the wavelength converting materials in the device are arranged relative to the light emitting device and relative to each other to tailor interaction between the different wavelength converting materials in order to maximize one or more of the luminous equivalent, color rendering index, and color gamut of the combined visible light emitted by the device.

A new fluorescent lamp comprises a lamp tube and an electronic ballast, it is characterized in that it is provided with an outer tube, there are respectively an outer plug at both ends of the outer tube, in which inserts a socket for the lamp tube. The electronic ballast is between the outer plug and the socket for the lamp tube at one end, said lamp tube is disposed between two sockets for the lamp tube. There are advantages as follows: an urgent lighting, the electronic ballast and the compact lamp tube are integrated as one whole; it is convenient for mounting and exchanging, a cost for mounting is greatly reduced; it is possible for repacking to maintain an original means, to reduce a contamination of waste; its weight is light; its power factor is high, more than 95%, it is economical in power, a cost for transporting is low; the color rendering index (CRI) is more than 80%; it is ignited immediately after it is turned on, it does not flash; it is applied to lamps having deferent power; the life of the lamp tube is prolonged by 50%; its output brightness is higher than existing lamps by twice or more; the lamp tube still steadily operates when a power supply is unexpected to be shut off, which reduces accident cases; the whole distortion of a resonant wave becomes smaller than 30%.

A lighting apparatus includes a first source of monochromatic light, a second source of white light, and a third source of polychromatic light. The light from the three sources combine to produce a resultant color of light from the apparatus. The intensities of the light emitted by the first, second and third sources are independently controlled by a controller to produce a desired resultant color of light. Varying the amount of electric current applied to each such light source by substantially an equal amounts to changes the luminance of the combined light with out affecting the resultant color. The lighting apparatus can be operated to replicate a Planckian radiator with a color rendering index of at least 80 throughout a substantial portion of the visible light spectrum produced by the lighting apparatus.

A light emitting device including a phosphor blend including four or more phosphors emitting within a specific spectral range to optimize the color rendering index (CRI) for a given color coordinated temperature (CCT). The blend will include at least four phosphors selected from the following: a blue phosphor having an emission peak at 400-500 nm, a green phosphor having an emission peak at 500-575 nm, an orange phosphor having an emission peak from 575-615 nm, and a deep red phosphor having an emission peak at 615-680 nm. The preferred blends are used to make light sources with general CRI values (Ra) greater than 95 at CCT's from about 2500 to 8000 K.

Disclosed herein is a light fixture. The light fixture includes at least one first light source that emits at a peak wavelength in a range of approximately 380 nm to approximately 420 nm and at least one second light source that emits at a different peak wavelength, wherein a combined light output of the at least one first light source and the at least one second light source emits a colored light that is perceived as white light. The white light is defined by having a color rendering index (CRI) value of more than approximately 50. The at least one second light source that emits at a different peak wavelength consists of an xy coordinate on a International Commission on Illumination (CIE) 1931 xy color space diagram above a black body curve within a bounded area defined by a first line of approximately y=2.23989x−0.382773 and a second line of approximately y=1.1551x−0.195082. The combined light output has a proportion of spectral energy measured in the approximately 380 nm to approximately 420 nm range of greater than approximately 20%.
