A hyphae inhibition apparatus irradiates an organism having hyphae with light to inhibit growth of the hyphae. The hyphae inhibition apparatus includes a first light source generator, including at least one of a violet light source that emits light having a peak wavelength in a range of from 380 nm to 410 nm, inclusive, or a UVB light source that emits light having a peak wavelength in a range of from at least 280 nm to below 350 nm. The hyphae inhibition apparatus also includes a second light source generator, including at least one of a blue light source that emits light having a peak wavelength in a range of from at least 350 nm to below 380 nm or a UVA light source that emits light having a peak wavelength in a range of from 415 nm to 480 nm, inclusive.

A lighting device includes an LED light source that emits light having a first peak wavelength in a range from 200 to 470 nm and a second peak wavelength in a range from 460 to 700 nm. An emission intensity at the second peak wavelength is greater than an emission intensity at the first peak wavelength, and an emission intensity at a wavelength band of 720 nm or greater is one tenth or less than an emission intensity at the second peak wavelength.

Lighting device

A lighting device includes an LED light source that emits light having a first peak wavelength at 430 to 460 nm and a second peak wavelength at 530 to 570 nm.

An illumination apparatus includes an LED light source including one or more LEDs. A spectrum of lights emitted from the LED light source has a first peak wavelength in a wavelength band ranging from 380 nm to 470 nm and a second peak wavelength in a wavelength band ranging from 500 nm to 700 nm, and a half width of the first peak wavelength is set to be equal to or less than 20 nm.

Illumination apparatus to reduce insect attractancy

An electrodeless discharge lamp includes a discharge gas sealed in a lamp tube. The discharge gas includes a halide of rare earth metal. An auxiliary electrode is disposed on or adjacent to an outer periphery wall of the lamp tube such that the auxiliary electrode is capacitively coupled to an interior space of the lamp tube. A main induction coil is wound around the lamp tube and receives power from a first high frequency power source. The auxiliary electrode receives power from a second high frequency power source. In operation, the electrodeless discharge lamp attains smooth lighting upon starting or restarting.
