Abstract

We report a reflective chirped polarization volume grating (CPVG) with a dramatically wider angular bandwidth and significantly higher first-order diffraction efficiency than the holographic volume grating and surface relief grating for large field-of-view (FOV) augmented reality (AR) displays. By introducing gradient pitch structure along the beam propagation direction, the angular bandwidth is extended from 18° to 54° while keeping over 80% diffraction efficiency. We also prepare a two-layer reflective PVG and compare its performance with the chirped structure. Based on the simulation and experimental results, CPVG is a strong contender for large FOV AR displays.
