That sounds unusual to me...
There are colored metal halide lamps ("lightbulbs") that involve the
specific metal halides chosen to be ones that specialize in production of
colored light.
Green and blue ones do that fairly well, with halides of thallium and
indium respectively.
A major manufacturer of these is Iwasaki or "EYE".
