Hello,
Would anyone be able to help me or point me towards some information about how I can possibly create a widget that would combine the output of several LEDs and make it into one LED-sized light source. This is to create a diy fluorescence illumination arm for a microscope which I could use to create mixed autofluorescence lighting. ie say mix a 365nm and 395nm LED, with seperate control over each.
Thank you - any help gratefully appreciated!!!

You could polarise both LEDs with a polarizing filter
Mount them 90° to each other and combine with a polarizing cube
the other thing is mount em very close to each other

Thank you Lexel!
As someone who knows very little about DIY’ing electronics but is prepared to learn (if there’s a good outcome that can eventually be reached), can I ask something please about the second of those options, mounting them together. Is that something that can be done for any LED (provided there’s an appropriate heatsink that can be made to work on the other side for all), and are those LEDs then individually controllable?
Thank you very much for your time,
Regards,
