Rays on the red end have longer wavelengths and less energy. On the other end, blue rays have shorter wavelengths and more energy. [...]
An increasing number of studies shows the connection between blue light and a disruption of the circadian rhythm through suppression of the melatonin production (here are links to some interesting studies). If the production of this so called “sleep hormone” is diminished, it seems logical that the result may be a poor sleep quality and overall [...]

In the winter, we only receive a fraction of the light quantity that reaches us in summer. In addition, we spend the darker season mostly in artificially lighted rooms. This is why [...]
For all those that are interested in light, and regret the prohibition of the incandescent lamp, 2016 may have started promising. A publication in the scientific journal "Nature Nanotechnology" led to headlines as enthusiastic as "The resurrection of the incandescent lamp". Scientists at the Massachusetts Institue of Technology (MIT) have managed to drastically increase the [...]
