Abstract
A light emission package includes multiple colored solid state emitters each having a different non-white dominant wavelength in the visible range, and at least one lumiphor arranged to receive emissions from at least one other solid state emitter, with each emitter arranged on or adjacent to a common submount. The at least one other emitter and lumiphor may be arranged in combination to emit white light. Each emitter is independently controllable, permitting color and/or color temperature of a lighting device to be varied during operation of the device. At least one white emitter may be combined with red, green, and blue LEDs.
