  • Publication number: 20240393520
    Abstract: An optical waveguide device includes a light source structure, and an optical waveguide structure having at least one coupling-in structures and at least one coupling-out structures. An initial light beam can be coupled into the optical waveguide structure from the coupling-in structure and coupled-out multiple light beams from the coupling-out structure. A distance between a polygonal vertex of a coupling-out light beam and a polygonal adjacent edge of an adjacent coupling-out light beam is not greater than a preset threshold. When the initial light beam exit pupil expands, a distance between the polygonal vertex of the coupling-out light beam and the adjacent edge of the adjacent coupling-out light beam is less than the preset threshold, therefore, less overlap and gaps are formed by the polygonal coupling-out light beam, and the energy distribution uniformity is improved.

    Abstract: An optical combiner and a display device are provided. The optical combiner includes a light-transmitting structure and a waveguide structure in the light-transmitting structure. The waveguide structure includes a first dielectric layer, a waveguide plate, and a second dielectric layer arranged in sequence. The waveguide plate includes a coupling-out region, wherein the refractive index of the first dielectric layer and the refractive index of the second dielectric layer are both less than the refractive index of the waveguide plate. Since the refractive index of the first dielectric layer and the refractive index of the second dielectric layer are both less than the refractive index of the waveguide plate, light beams propagating in the waveguide plate undergo totally reflection during propagation and cannot be refracted into the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer.
