Abstract

While there are many factors that determine the commercial potential of an electric light source, color and efficiency are arguably the most important. Tradeoffs between color and efficiency are frequently made in lighting applications, typically by moving between different light source technologies. However, the potential exists to change position in color-efficiency space by filtering a light source. Because color is specified in two dimensions, and efficiency in one, the Pareto-optimal color and efficiency front defines a surface. This paper presents a method for determining color-efficiency Pareto optimal surface for a filtered light source.
