Bright edges problem

Hi,

I have a shape with no stroke on a black background. I filled it with bright cyan. I've added new fill on top and filled it with dark to transparent radial gradient.
And here my problem begins Although top fill is dark, I still can see subtle bright edge. Top fill gradient is of course big enough to cover shape from egde to edge

It's an anti-aliasing problem with the screen display. What happens if you turn off Anti-aliasing in the preferences?

When I export artwork as .png it still has same look.

And when I check off Anti-aliased Artwork in General preferences, It solves bright edges but whole artwork looks muddy and pixelized...
Is there option for best of both worlds

you need it for on-screen display?

Then you could create the artwork in RGB.

And yes, it's anti-aliasing problem. I just choosed OPTIMIZE FOR ARTWORK in .png exportd dialog box and it looks ok now. However, bright edge is still here in Illustrator file But it is not big problem, I will get used to it...

@ Monika
It seems that problem is not connected with color mode. Artwork is in RGB already...

Thank you all for your answers !!!
