摘要: Methods are disclosed for fabricating molds for forming waveguides with integrated spacers for forming eyepieces. The molds are formed by etching features (e.g., 1 μm to 1000 μm deep) into a substrate comprising single crystalline material using an anisotropic wet etch. The etch masks for defining the large features may comprise a plurality of holes, wherein the size and shape of each hole at least partially determine the depth of the corresponding large feature. The holes may be aligned along a crystal axis of the substrate and the etching may automatically stop due to the crystal structure of the substrate. The patterned substrate may be utilized as a mold onto which a flowable polymer may be introduced and allowed to harden. Hardened polymer in the holes may form a waveguide with integrated spacers. The mold may be also used to fabricate a platform comprising a plurality of vertically extending microstructures of precise heights, to test the curvature or flatness of a sample, e.g., based on the amount of contact between the microstructures and the sample.

摘要: Display devices include waveguides with in-coupling optical elements that mitigate re-bounce of in-coupled light to improve overall in-coupling efficiency and/or uniformity. A waveguide receives light from a light source and/or projection optics and includes an in-coupling optical element that in-couples the received light to propagate by total internal reflection in a propagation direction within the waveguide. Once in-coupled into the waveguide the light may undergo re-bounce, in which the light reflects off a waveguide surface and, after the reflection, strikes the in-coupling optical element. Upon striking the in-coupling optical element, the light may be partially absorbed and/or out-coupled by the optical element, thereby effectively reducing the amount of in-coupled light propagating through the waveguide. The in-coupling optical element can be truncated or have reduced diffraction efficiency along the propagation direction to reduce the occurrence of light loss due to re-bounce of in-coupled light, resulting in less in-coupled light being prematurely out-coupled and/or absorbed during subsequent interactions with the in-coupling optical element.
