Abstract
Multiple devices that operate at different wavelengths of light are incorporated into a single composite assembly to reduce the amount of space that is needed to incorporate the assembly into a consumer electronics device. In addition, by implementing the devices in a single composite assembly, costs associated with manufacturing, assembly and shipping the assembly can be reduced. The composite assembly includes filtering mechanisms that prevent undesired wavelengths of light from impinging on the devices.
