Smile brings some light (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beam

I believe this is a double definition.

'smile' is the first definition.
(to beam is to smile)

'some light' is the second definition.
(beam is a kind of light)

'brings' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for beam that I've seen before include "Column of light" , "XWD SETTER" , "Rafter - smile - width" , "Ray of light or a large smile" , "Smile radiantly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Sun.
