Abstract: A lighting fixture arranged and configured to emit visible (e.g., white) light and ultraviolet light. In one embodiment, the lighting fixture includes one or more visible light emitting compartments and one or more ultraviolet light emitting compartments for housing the visible light emitting components and the ultraviolet light emitting compartments, respectively. A shield is positioned between the visible light emitting compartment(s) and the ultraviolet light emitting compartment(s). The shield being configured to enable the visible light to pass therethrough while prohibiting the ultraviolet light from passing therethrough. Thus arranged, the visible light is allowed to enter the ultraviolet light emitting compartment(s) and mix with the ultraviolet light, while the ultraviolet light is prevented from entering the visible light emitting compartment(s) where it may degrade the components and materials of the visible light emitting compartment(s) contained within.
