1. An optoelectronic device comprising:
- a light source;
a generally coplanarly disposed detector, said detector receiving light from said light source;
a light conductive inner mold medium encapsulating said light source and said detector; and
a medium of lesser density than said light conductive medium interfaced with a surface of said light conductive medium for which light reflection is desired.

18. A method for optoelectric detection comprising:
-
encapsulating an emitter and a generally coplanar detector in a transparent inner mold; covering said inner mold with an opaque outer mold; spacing said inner mold and said outer mold apart, defining an air gap there between; emitting light from said light source; and reflecting said light from said emitter to said detector using total internal reflection phenomenon. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
