The invention provides a light generating
system comprising a
first light generating device, a second light generating device, a first
luminescent material, and a
control system, wherein: (A) the
first light generating device comprises a first
laser light source and is configured to generate first device light (111) having a first device light peak
wavelength (λ1) and having a first
spectral power distribution; wherein the first device light peak
wavelength (λ1) is selected from the
wavelength range of 425-465 nm; (B) the second light generating device comprises a second
laser light source and is configured to generate second device light (121) having a second device light peak wavelength (λ2) and having a second
spectral power distribution, different from the first
spectral power distribution; wherein the second device light peak wavelength (λ2) is selected from the range of 470-490 nm; (C) the first
luminescent material is configured in a light receiving relationship with the
first light generating device and is configured to convert at least part of the first device light into first
luminescent material light having a luminescent material emission
centroid wavelength (λc,1) within the green-yellow
wavelength range; and the first luminescent material is not configured in a light receiving relationship with the second light generating device; (D) the light generating
system is configured to generate
system light (1001) comprising one or more of the first device light, the second device light, and the first luminescent material light, wherein the system light has a controllable correlated
color temperature; and (E) the
control system is configured to control the first light generating device and the second light generating device, such that (a) in a first operational mode of the light generating system the system light has a first correlated
color temperature CCT1, wherein CCT1≥4000 K, (b) in a second operational mode of the light generating system the system light has a second correlated
color temperature (CCT2), wherein CCT2−CCT1≥1000 K, (c) in at least one of the operational
modes, the system light has a correlated color temperature selected from the range of at least 7000 K, and (d) the system light in both operational
modes has a
color rendering index of at least 70.
