One of the most common gods in fiction is the God of Light. This comes in four categories:
Solar Deity: A god with The Power of the Sun. This type of god is often a Top God or at least ranked very high in the divine food chain. If depicted as evil they may qualify as a Sinister Sentient Sun.
Bringer of the Dawn/Ruler of Day: A god whose domain is the dawn or day. They may overlap with God of the Sun. May have a vibrant and cheery personality.
Lord of Light: A deity whose domain is generic light. They are often heroic or may be the Big Good of the setting, but it is possible for them to be evil. They too are also likely to be a Top God.
God of the Stars: A deity with Star Power. This is the less common type of light deity. Their importance may vary among the pantheon. These gods are likely to be night deities due to stars being visible only at night.
If a deity associated with darkness or the night also exists, these deities typically have one of two relationships with them. The first one is opposition; the God of Light will view the nocturnal deity as a bitter enemy, and in these cases, the other deity is also associated with evil, destruction, and malevolence — Light Is Good, Dark Is Evil, and Nice Day, Deadly Night are all usually at play in these cases, and if the light god is a God of Good then the dark one will be a God of Evil. The second type has the two deities exist in balance and harmony, peacefully overseeing different parts of the cycle of day and night, and will often have a close relationship as equals; this is especially common when the nocturnal deity is associated with the moon, giving the two deities a Night and Day Duo dynamic. On rare occasions this deity might be evil; this is more often true for general light deities or those associated with stars (especially the Morning Star) rather than solar ones, though some examples of the latter do exist. God of Fire can overlap. This deity's faithful may take the form of Stern Sun Worshippers.

Nightrunner:
Illior is known as "the Lightbringer" or "the Lightbearer." Unlike most light deities, Illior is associated with the moon instead of the sun, as well as wisdom, insanity, and oracles. Illior is the primary god of the main characters Alec and Seregil, who are thieves and spies.
Sakor is known as "the Flamebringer" and is also the god of the sun, war, and victory.

Warhammer: Age of Sigmar: Tyrion the elf became the embodiment of Hysh, the Wind of Light, and thus the new god of light in the Mortal Realms. Technically his brother Teclis, as a satellite deity to his brother, also qualifies, though in practical terms he's more of a god of knowledge and magic.

Phantasy Star IV introduces a counterpart to series Big Bad Dark Force with the obvious Light theme, a creator deity represented by a spiral galaxy of silvery, glittering stars. It's actually a subversion. They do appear as beings of living fire, but the Great Light won the battle, history is written by the victors, and the conflict is the only reason the Great Light and Profound Darkness even need names. Light or dark, both are completely alien to the people of Algo and the conflict was never, and has never been, a moral one.

Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja: The second game features seven gods hailing from the west (IE: Europe, as opposed to the game's Japanese setting and main characters) as its antagonists/bosses and little over half of them are associated with light.
Baldur is the god of light in general, making him a Lord of Light. Unusually for that type, he's the first of the group fought and seems to be the lowest in the hierarchy, being little more than a Brute.
Stella is the goddess of starlight who fights alongside her twin brother Alte, himself a rare example of a god of moonlight. They're a pair of Jerkass Trickster Twins.
Corona is the goddess of sunlight and the third most powerful of the lot. ...She's also something of a Mama Bear towards her younger siblings (the aforementioned Stella and Alte) and the protagonists "bullying" them hits her Berserk Button.

Discworld: In Pyramids, Djelibeybian mythology states that the Pharaoh himself is the god responsible for making the sun rise. And that the sun is the eye of Yay, a god searching for his toenails. And that Scrab is the Pusher of the Ball of the Sun, and that Thrrp is the Charioteer of the Sun, and that Jeht is Boatsman of the Solar Orb, and there's also a Sun God called Cephnet. This is typical of Djelibeybian religion. When they get shunted into a pocket dimension where everything they believe is true, the various solar deities are shown fighting over it.

Zigzagged with Pyrrhon. Palutena calls him the sun god, but Viridi establishes that Pyrrhon calls himself that (his idol also says the title is self-proclaimed) giving question of whether he actually is a god or just claiming to be one. Nevertheless, he has great solar power and provides aid against the Aurum up until he takes control of them and proclaims himself more powerful than even the gods.
Lady Palutena herself is the Goddess of Light, and seems to be the ruler of Skyworld.

Final Fantasy XIV: Several different gods that fit this bill feature across various pantheons. Hydaelyn, the Mother Crystal, is the primordial goddess of Light and opposite of Zodiark, who represents the dark. The pantheon of the Twelve features celestial variations of this in Azeyma (sun), Menphina (moon), and Nymeia (stars). The auri gods Azim and Nhaama are sun and moon deities respectively, while the kami Tsukuyomi is a moon goddess.

Exalted: The Unconquered Sun, the god of the solar orb, is the highest and greatest of the gods of Creation. He is presented as the archetypal hero and the shining emblem of moral perfection, and is Creation's mightiest defender against foes... at least when he can turn away from the extremely addictive Games of Divinity. He forms a pair with Luna, the goddess of the moon, who is the second mightiest deity in the world and the closest thing he has to a peer.

Pathfinder:
Sarenrae is the goddess of healing and the sun. She is one of the setting's main Gods of Good, as she is strongly associated with protection, mercy, and redemption, and is the primary deity and patron of the great empire of Kelesh. She is also associated with phoenixes, a species of noble and benevolent birds said to have been created when Sarenrae uplifted some rocs and blessed them with her flames.
Shizuru is the Tian goddess of the sun and honor, and the patron of righteous rulers and honorable warriors, and grants her worshippers a number of light-based magical powers. She is the ruler of the Tian pantheon and is married to Tsukiyo, the god of the moon. Their relationship is strained due to their separation, as they can only meet when the sun and moon join during an eclipse.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Forgotten Realms:
Lathander (Morninglord, Lord of Morning) is the god of the dawn and morning. His portfolio also includes spring, birth, renewal, vitality, youth, and beginnings.
Amaunator, the Netherese god of the Sun, whom Lathander is the aspect of/reincarnation of/same god as/not the same deity.
Greyhawk:
Pelor is the god of the sun, light, strength, and healing. Flan myth says he either created the sun or is the sun and Pelorian dogma has it that the energy and power of life originates in the sun; and as a Neutral Good greater god he's also one of the top contenders for Big Good status among the known Greyhawk deities.
Celestian is the god of space and the stars. His innate powers include Aurora Borealis (a sheet of dancing, shifting light surrounds him) and Star Shine (a blazing white light emanates from his eyes, blinding his opponents).
Pholtus of the Blinding Light is the deity of light, the sun, and the moon. His Staff of the Silvery Sun can act as a Wand of Illumination, as well as sending out a Spectrum Beam of light that goes through the infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet spectra. Unfortunately, he's also a glaring (pun intended) example of Good Is Not Nice, as while he is Lawful Good he encourages fanaticism and Church Militant tendencies in his worshippers, and tends to discourage if not outright ban all other worship (even of other good deities) in lands where his church is preeminent.
La Notte Eterna: Laon was the Lawful Good god of the sun and a member of the ruling Triad of gods alongside Lanie of the moon and Garon of the darkness. He was imprisoned and sealed at the start of the Divine War, which marked the beginning of The Night That Never Ends.

The Elder Scrolls:
Akatosh is the most powerful of the Nine Divines and is known to the elven races as Auri-El, god of sunlight. The Dawnguard DLC of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim touches on this, as Auri-El's paladin Gelebor can provide the Dragonborn with sunhallowed arrows which weaponize sunlight.
The Daedric Prince Azura is associated with both dawn and dusk. She is usually depicted as a beautiful woman holding the sun in one hand and the moon in the other.
Meridia is the Daedric Prince of Life Energies and Light who is a sworn enemy of the undead. While considered benevolent by Daedric Prince standards, she's also prone to fits of narcissism and can be ruthless in getting her way.

The Dark Hunters: Apollo is the God of the Sun and serves as one of the series' most enduring and evil villains. After the death of his son and mistress, Apollo cursed the Daimon race to require blood to survive and to die when they reach 27. They were able to cheat this by becoming soul eaters, transforming them into a plague on humanity. Later books have Apollo himself as a main villain who plots mass death and destruction. He also serves as a major thorn in the side of the heroes as due to him being the God of the Sun, he can't be killed without the sun itself going out and causing the death of everything else.

Pokémon:
Zig-Zagged by Volcarona, who isn't of divine origin but was worshipped by the native Unovans as a solar deity. However, its design was based on the seraphim and vaguely resembles the setting's Top God Arceus as well.
Played straight by Necrozma, a draconic Lord of Light that was worshipped by the ancient people of Ultra Megalopolis until they tried to steal its power for themselves and left it a blackened Broken Angel that has to absorb light to survive.

Magic: The Gathering: Solar deities are strongly associated with White mana, the color of magic linked with light, daytime, law, order, and civilization. Depending on the god in question, they range from patrons of civilization and morality to Knights Templar and arrogant tyrants.
Tal was a solar deity worshipped by the humans of Terisiare during the Dark, an age of crumbling civilizations in the leadup to a Glacial Apocalypse. He does not make any in-person appearances in the story, but his church was a fanatical Anti-Magical Faction determined to hold the remnants of civilization together but willing to go to extreme and bloody lengths to do this.
Heliod is Theros' god of the sun, the chief of the gods, the lord of light, and the king of creation. He is also an arrogant tyrant who sees all others as beneath him. He is bitter enemies with Erebos, the God of the Dead, who came into being from Heliod's shadow when he tore it from himself and cast it into the Underworld.
The Threefold Sun is the primary deity of the humans of the Sun Empire of Ixalan. He makes no in-person appearances, but the Ixalani consider him the patron and protector of their civilization and worship him in three aspects — the creative aspect of Kinjalli, the Wakening Sun, which baked the first humans from clay and is associated with order and structure; the sustaining aspect of Ixalli, the Verdant Sun, which fosters growth and is associated with fertility and growth; and the consuming aspect of Tilonalli, the Burning Sun, which is associated with ferocity, fire, passionate emotions, and war. It is bitter foes with Aclazatoz, the bat-god of the night and creator of vampirism.
Kamigawa, based on Japan, had Terashi, the kami of the sun. Curiously for a set based on a culture where Amaterasu was the Top God, this is a fairly minor character with just some flavor text allusions, though in the original cycle it was one of the few kami still worshipped by humans when all others went cuckoo.
In Shadowmoor (based on dark fairy tales), the Oversoul of Dusk (typed "spirit avatar", but like with the kami this was before the type "god" was introduced) presides over the sun, which she hid away for unclear reasons.
In the Egyptian inspired Amonkhet the goddesses Oketra and Hazoret seem to be associated with the plane's twin suns, the former using their light to make her magical arrows and the latter said to be made of the same essence as the Second Sun.
The Norse inspired Kaldheim has Reidane. Though officially she's the "god of justice", her artwork depicts her shining radiantly and she seems to rule over Starnheim, the main light source and sun-analogue (how and why is unexplained considering its otherwise off-limits to the gods). Her card also forces snow lands to come in tapped, implying her light is melting them off.

Pillars of Eternity has Eothas, the God of Light who in the past was actually killed via Fantastic Nuke in the Saints War. As such, his religion is now an Illegal Religion with party member Eder being a secret follower. In the sequel Eothas manages to revive himself in the form of a gigantic statue in an event that nearly killed The Watcher and becomes the closest thing to a central antagonist.

Warhammer:
Dazh is the Kislevite god of fire, the sun, and hospitality, and is quite popular in Kislev due to the importance of the light and heat he brings in the cold and harsh climate of the country. He is said to have given fire to the first humans by gifting them with flames taken from the sun, and is said to ride across the world each day before returning home each night — Dazhite religion requires worshippers to greet him at sunrise and wish him well at sunset. While all periods of daylight are sacred to him, his holiest day is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.
Ptra, an Expy of the Egyptian god Ra, was the Nehekaran god of the sun, the king of the gods, and the spouse of Neru, the Goddess of the Moon. He was the most highly-revered deity in the kingdom until the Nehekarans' increasing preoccupation with death and the afterlife caused them to begin favoring Ushoran, the God of the Dead.
Alluminas is a deity of light in itself, alongside purity and stasis.
Solkan is a solar deity as his core, and embodies the harsh, cleansing light of the burning sun. He is often depicted wearing a sunburst-shaped crown or with a radiant sun behind his head, and as wielding a flaming sword.

GURPS: The Dungeon Fantasy sub-line features classic dungeon fantasy-style clerics and holy warriors, and allows for the possibility of them worshiping a range of deities. GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 5: Allies distinguishes deities by their "elements" (which determine the powers of any supernatural servitors they send to aid their worshipers), and "Light" is one such element. GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 7: Clerics offers different spell lists and special powers for different types of deity served; rather than light as such, it discusses Sun Gods.

Majesty: The game allows you to build temples to certain gods and recruit their followers as heroes. One example is the sun goddess, Helia. Her temple is mutually exclusive with that of the moon god Lunord; if you build temples for one, you cannot build any for the other. Unusually, in Warlock: Master of the Arcane, a 4X spinoff in the same setting, she is the primary deity of the werewolves — the werewolf player character is her high priest, and the beast faction's temple unit for her are werewolf priests of the sun — due to the wolves having been cast out of Lunord's sight when their old king tried and failed to usurp his power, forcing them to go to her for protection.

Greyhawk:
Pelor is the god of the sun, light, strength, and healing. Flan myth says he either created the sun or is the sun and Pelorian dogma has it that the energy and power of life originates in the sun; and as a Neutral Good greater god he's also one of the top contenders for Big Good status among the known Greyhawk deities.
Celestian is the god of space and the stars. His innate powers include Aurora Borealis (a sheet of dancing, shifting light surrounds him) and Star Shine (a blazing white light emanates from his eyes, blinding his opponents).
Pholtus of the Blinding Light is the deity of light, the sun, and the moon. His Staff of the Silvery Sun can act as a Wand of Illumination, as well as sending out a Spectrum Beam of light that goes through the infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet spectra. Unfortunately, he's also a glaring (pun intended) example of Good Is Not Nice, as while he is Lawful Good he encourages fanaticism and Church Militant tendencies in his worshippers, and tends to discourage if not outright ban all other worship (even of other good deities) in lands where his church is preeminent.
