Abstract

See full text

A lighting device comprising first and second groups of solid state light emitters, which emit light having peak wavelength in ranges of 430 to 480 nm, and first and second groups of lumiphors which emit light having dominant wavelength in the range of 555 to 585 nm. In some embodiments, if current is supplied to a power line, a combination of (1) light exiting the lighting device emitted by the first group of emitters, and (2) light exiting the lighting device emitted by the first group of lumiphors would have a correlated color temperature which differs by at least 50 K from a correlated color temperature which would be emitted by a combination of (3) light exiting the lighting device which was emitted by the second group of emitters, and (4) light exiting the lighting device which was emitted by the second group of lumiphors.
