Lighting system for protecting circadian neuroendocrine function
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.

Illumination System for a Lithographic or Inspection Apparatus
An illumination system has a microLED array 502. The microLED array 502 is imaged or placed very close to a phosphor coated glass disc 504 which upconverts the light from the microLED array into a narrow band emission. The plate has at least two different photoluminescent materials arranged to be illuminated by the microLED array and to thereby emit output light. The different photoluminescent materials have different emission spectral properties of the output light, e.g. different center wavelength and optionally different bandwidth. Illumination of different photoluminescent materials by the illumination sources is selectable, by selective activation of the microLEDs or by movement of the photoluminescent materials relative to the illumination sources, to provide different illumination of the different photoluminescent materials. This provides tunable spectral properties of the output light. Selectively configurable filters 506 are arranged to filter the output light in accordance with the selected illumination of the different photoluminescent materials.

Surgical Lighting Device for Fluorescent Imaging
This disclosure relates to a surgical lighting device for generating a spot of light on a surgical site for use in combination with a fluorescence imaging device. The lighting device comprises a support structure, a subsurface which may be coupled to the support structure to seal the lower surface of the device while allowing light to pass through and a plurality of light sources emitting white light and placed between the support structure and the subsurface. The device further includes a plurality of NIR (near infrared) filters, each NIR filter being associated with a light source and being configured to substantially prevent the transmission of wavelengths within a wavelength band from 680 nm to 900 nm, while minimizing the change in the color temperature of the light spot.
