  • Patent number: 11656464
    Abstract: A pupil-replicating waveguide includes a high-index substrate and a low-index substrate coupled by an intermediate layer between the substrates. The refractive index of the intermediate layer is lower than the refractive index of the low-index substrate. The intermediate layer prevents highly oblique rays of image light from entering the low-index substrate, thereby reducing intensity drops in the field of view conveyed by the pupil-replicating waveguide, the intensity drops caused by insufficient replication of the highly oblique rays in the low-index substrate.

  • Patent number: 11513373
    Abstract: A diffraction grating includes a substrate and a plurality of fringes supported by the substrate. The fringes run parallel to each other in a first direction. A refractive index of a material of the plurality of fringes is anisotropic, whereby a refractive index contrast of the diffraction grating depends on direction of electric field of an impinging light beam, and through that dependence is a function of an azimuthal angle of the impinging light beam. A dependence of the diffraction efficiency on the azimuthal angle is affected by the dependence of the refractive index contrast on the direction of electric field of an impinging light beam. A pupil-replicating waveguide may use such a diffraction grating as a coupler for in- our out-coupling image light.
