Abstract

A solid state light emitting-based illumination system which, when energized, exhibits a correlated color temperature (CCT) in the range of between about 3300° K and about 5300° K, and exhibits a COI of less than 3.3 is provided. The system comprises two or more solid state elements, and is configured to provide a total light that appears white when energized, the combined light having preselected spectral fraction values such that when combined the emission meets the specified CCT and COI standards. A method for combining individual solid-state light emitters is also provided.
