    OLED Lighting and Human Circadian System: A Review
    (2021) Avcı, Ayşe Nihan; Akbay, Saadet
    Light is a form of energy that affects the human sleep cycle, working hours, alertness, productivity, and well-being. As one of the most essential environmental factors, lighting requires extensive research to understand the human-environment interaction. Earlier studies reveal that various artificial lighting technologies are utilised to investigate the human circadian system; experiments employing solid state lighting (SSL) sources are still being conducted to determine how the human circadian system is affected. Due to the advantages of OLED lighting, there is a need to enhance the use of this form of artificial lighting in an indoor environment. This paper focuses on a literature review on artificial lighting sources, particularly OLED lighting, which has been used from the past to the present. This paper also discusses how OLED lighting can be utilised to alter the human circadian system in an indoor environment.

    Effects of LED Lighting on Visual Comfort with Respect to the Reading Task
    (2017) Avcı, Ayşe Nihan; Memikoğlu, İpek
    Lighting systems in interior architecture need to be designed according to the function of the space, the type of task within the space, user comfort and needs. Desired and comfortable lighting levels increase task efficiency. When natural lighting is inadequate in a space, artificial lighting is additionally used to support the level of light. With the technological developments, the characteristics of light are being researched comprehensively and several business segments have focused on its qualitative and quantitative characteristics. These studies have increased awareness and usage of artificial lighting systems and researchers have investigated the effects of lighting on physical and psychological aspects of human in various ways. The aim of this study is to research the effects of illuminance levels of LED lighting on user visual comfort. Eighty participants from the Department of Interior Architecture of Çankaya University participated in three lighting scenarios consisting of 200 lux, 500 lux and 800 lux that are created with LED lighting. Each lighting scenario is evaluated according to six visual comfort criteria in which a reading task is performed. The results of the study indicated that LED lighting with three different illuminance levels affect visual comfort in different ways. The results are limited to the participants and questions that are attended and used in this study.

    Color Perception in Correlated Color Temperature of Led Lighting
    (2018) Akbay, Saadet; Avcı, Ayşe Nihan
    Color and light are inseparable entities that are the essential design factors in the field of interior architecture. When the light changes, the perceived color appearance of a surface within an interior environment also changes. The change in color perception is not only related to the type of a light source or the intensity of illumination, but also to the correlated color temperature (CCT) of a light source. The aim of this study is to understand how different CCTs of light-emitting diode (LED) lighting influence the color perception. A study is conducted to compare the perceptive color tendencies for inherent colors under two different CCTs of LED lighting, i.e. warm (2700º K) and cool (4000º K). In the study, Natural Color System (NCS) is utilized as a color notation system to reveal the possible tendencies and patterns concerning the relationship between the inherent and perceived colors. The general tendencies for the perceived colors revealed similar patterns in the nuance (i.e. blackness and chromaticness) color area for each inherent color and showed dispersion on the hue color area under the CCTs of both 2700º K and 4000º K LED lighting.
