Abstract
A solid state lighting device includes at least one electrically activated solid state light emitter configured to stimulate emissions of first through third lumiphoric materials having peak wavelengths in ranges of from 485 nm to 530 nm, from 575 nm to 595 nm, and from 605 nm to 640 nm, respectively (or subranges thereof defined herein), with the third peak having a full width half maximum value of less than 60 nm. The resulting device generates aggregated emissions having a suitably high color rendering index (e.g., CRI Ra) value (e.g., at least 70), and also having a spectral power distribution with a Melanopic/Photopic ratio within a specified target range as a function of correlated color temperature, thereby providing increased perceived brightness.
