Lighting systems, methods, and devices for protecting human circadian neuroendocrine function during night use are described. Suitable lighting conditions can be provided for a working environment while protecting the circadian neuroendocrine systems of those occupying the illuminated workplace during the night. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide substantive attenuation of the pathologic circadian disruption in night workers. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can attenuate the specific bands of light implicated in circadian disruption. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide increased intensity at a different portion of the spectrum than conventional LEDs, providing a useable white light even when unfavorable portions of the wavelength are attenuated by a notch filter. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can switch between a daytime configuration and a night time configuration, wherein the daytime configuration provides unfiltered light and the night time configuration provides filtered light.

A solid state lamp includes a connector and a bulb portion with multiple strips.

This specification relates to a lighting apparatus, including a support and three or more surface light source panels provided on the support. The surface light source panel has two or more types of light-emitting colors.

A vehicular lamp includes a planar light emitting member having an organic EL light emitting portion at part of a substrate, and a reflecting member and a half mirror that are disposed so as to face each other so that light emitted from the organic EL light emitting portion is reflected repeatedly while allowing part of the light to be transmitted to the front.

The present invention has an object to provide a planar light-emitting panel attached with a jacket to protect edges of a light-emitting tile, while the jacket is prevented from being peeled off or removed from the light-emitting tile. The planar light-emitting panel includes the light-emitting using a glass substrate as a base, and an elastic jacket covering end faces of the glass substrate. An emission surface is provided on a front face of the light-emitting tile. The elastic jacket has a rear face side opening, on a rear face side of the light-emitting tile. On opening edges of the rear face side opening, when viewed from rear, a plurality of jacket side protrusions protruding toward a center side of the rear face side opening are formed. The jacket side protrusions are separated at predetermined intervals along the opening edges.

The invention relates to an illumination system comprising a light emitting device and a beam shaping element for generating an angular distribution of the light emitted from the illumination system. The beam shaping element is configured for recycling at least a part of the light emitted from a light emitting surface of the light emitting device via reflection back towards the light emitting surface. The illumination system further comprises a diffuser arranged substantially parallel to the light emitting surface for diffusing at least part of the recycled light. The diffuser is constituted of a translucent diffuser and/or a diffusely reflective electrode layer of the light emitting device. Limiting the angular distribution by recycling light, using the beam shaping element for recycling light via reflection, reduces glare when the illumination system is used in general lighting applications. The diffuser avoids that the recycled light is confined between the beam shaping element and the light emitting surface of the light emitting element. The recycling is preferably done via total internal reflection at the beam shaping element. The presence of the diffuser improves the efficiency of the illumination system.

A lamp includes a lamp housing which has a light exit opening. A light source of a first type is arranged in the lamp housing. A mounting is fastened to the lamp housing and at least one light source of a second type is fastened to the holder. The at least one light source of the second type includes an organic light-emitting diode and the at least one light source of the second type is arranged downstream of the light exit opening in an emission direction.

Certain embodiments are directed to a lighting device comprising one or more of the following: a plurality of LEDs; a plurality of optic devices corresponding to the plurality of LEDs; at least one optical separator for substantially preventing the light emitted from one LED from effecting the other LEDs; a thermoelectric device configured to harvest heat generated by the LEDs and convert the harvested heat into electrical energy; and a low temperature material for creating a temperature difference across the thermoelectric device.

Luminaires and luminaire components are provided that may include emissive, index-matching, and/or outcoupling components that are replaceable separately from other components of the luminaire. In some embodiments, an index-matching component may include a gel sheet or pad that can be disposed between an emissive component and an outcoupling component. The index-matching component may be replaceable separately from the emissive and outcoupling components. In some embodiments, an emissive component including an OLED panel and/or an index-matching component may be replaceable separately from other components of the luminaire.

The present disclosure provides a lighting device comprising: a reflective element layer; an optical resin layer formed on the reflective element layer; a transparent electrode film layer formed on the optical resin layer; and a plurality of light-emitting units formed on the lower surface of the transparent electrode film layer. The lighting device allows the fundamental cause of the hot spot phenomenon to be eliminated, shows excellent luminous efficiency by efficiently performing the function of a surface light source, and enables the kinds of raw materials and the number of production processes to be reduced by eliminating the use of a PCB board and selectively applying second reflective patterns.
