Abstract: Provided is an indium phosphide substrate, a semiconductor epitaxial wafer, a method for producing an indium phosphide single-crystal ingot and a method for producing indium phosphide substrate capable of suppressing concave defects. An indium phosphide substrate has a diameter of 100 mm or less, and at least one of surfaces has zero concave defects detected in the topography channel, by irradiating a laser beam of 405 nm wavelength with S-polarized light on the surface.

Abstract: Features of the present disclosure implement a light illumination system that utilizes a scanning device that is pivotal on an axis between a plurality of positions. To this end, the system may partition the image frame into at least a first sub-image frame and a second sub-image frame. The system may adjust the scanning device, during the first time period, to a first position to reflect light associated with the first sub-image and adjust the scanning mirror, during the second time period, to a second position to reflect light associated with the second sub-image. Thus, by implementing the techniques described herein, the overall size of a linear array (e.g., liquid crystal on silicon or LCoS) in an optics systems (as well as of some optical components in the optics systems) may be reduced from its current constraints, and thereby achieving a compact optical system that is mobile and user friendly.

Abstract: A near eye or heads up display system includes a display engine, at least two optical waveguides, and a respective coating on at least one of the major surfaces of at least one of the waveguides. At least one such coating has a low reflectance for light within a specific wavelength range for the waveguide and incident on a major surface of the waveguide on which the coating is located at an angle below a low threshold angle relative to a normal, and has a high reflectance for light within the specific wavelength range for the waveguide that is incident on the major surface on which the coating is located at an angle above a high threshold angle relative to the normal.
