Abstract:
The present disclosure provides methods for generating tunable white light with controllable circadian energy performance. The methods use a plurality of LED strings to generate light with color points that fall within blue, yellow/green, red, and cyan color ranges, with each LED string being driven with a separately controllable drive current in order to tune the generated light output. Different light emitting modes can be selected that utilize different combinations of the plurality of LED strings in order to tune the generated white light.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of generating white light, the method comprising:\n producing light from a first light emitting diode (\u201cLED\u201d) string that comprises a blue LED with peak wavelength of between about 405 nm and about 470 nm; producing light from a second LED string that comprises a blue LED with peak wavelength of between about 405 nm and about 470 nm; producing light from a third LED string that comprises a blue LED with peak wavelength of between about 405 nm and about 470 nm, a fourth LED string that comprises a cyan LED with peak wavelength of between about 485 nm and about 520 nm, or both the third LED string and the fourth LED string; and passing the light produced by each of the first, second, third, and fourth LED strings through one of a plurality of respective luminophoric mediums; combining the light exiting the plurality of respective luminophoric mediums together into white light; wherein the combined white light corresponds to at least one of a plurality of points along a predefined path near the black body locus in the 1931 CIE Chromaticity Diagram.
