US Patent 11938339 Switchable bioactive lighting

The present disclosure provides lighting systems, which may be semiconductor light emitting devices, with two or more of blue, red and/or LRNE, short-blue-pumped cyan, long-blue-pumped cyan, yellow, and violet channels. The lighting systems can have a plurality of operational modes that provide different biological effects while having good color rendering capability. The yellow and violet channels can include violet LEDs and be used in operational modes that provide white light with lower EML values relative to operational modes using three or more of the blue, red, short-blue-pumped cyan, and long-blue-pumped cyan color channels.
