Lighting system
DCFirst Claim
1. A lighting system comprising at least two light-emitting diodes, each of said at least two light-emitting diodes emitting, in operation, visible light in a preselected wavelength range, andconversion means for converting a part of the visible light emitted by one of the at least two light-emitting diodes into visible light in a further wavelength range so as to optimize the color rendition of the lighting system;
- wherein the at least two light-emitting diodes comprise at least a blue light-emitting diode and at least a red light-emitting diode; and
wherein the conversion means include a luminescent material for converting a portion of the light emitted by the blue light-emitting diode into green light.

Abstract
A lighting system includes at least two light-emitting diodes each emitting, in operation, visible light in a preselected wavelength range. A converter converts part of the visible light emitted by one of the diodes into visible light in a further wavelength range so as to optimize the color rendition of the lighting system. The diodes include a blue light-emitting diode and a red light-emitting diode. Further, the converter includes a luminescent material for converting a portion of the light emitted by the blue light-emitting diode into green light.
