Abstract
AbstractIn this review paper,we report recent progress on Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase optical elements, such as lens, grating, and deflector. PB lenses exhibit a fast switching time between two or more focal lengths with large diopter change and aperture size, which is particularly attractive for addressing the accommodation mismatch in head-mounted display devices. On the other hand, PB gratings and deflectors offer a large-angle beam deflection with wide acceptance cone and high efficiency, as compared to conventional volume gratings. Such merits provide great advantages for waveguide-coupling augmented reality headsets. Moreover, the thickness of PB optical elements is only a few micrometers, thus they can be conveniently integrated into modern wearable display systems.
