Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to displays including but not limited to near eye displays and more particularly to holographic waveguide displays.


Waveguide optics is currently being considered for a range of display and sensor applications for which the ability of waveguides to integrate multiple optical functions into a thin, transparent, lightweight substrate is of key importance. This new approach is stimulating new product developments including near-eye displays for Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR), compact Heads Up Display (HUDs) for aviation and road transport and sensors for biometric and laser radar (LIDAR) applications. Waveguide displays have been proposed which use diffraction gratings to preserve eye box size while reducing lens size. U.S. Pat. No. 4,309,070 issued to St. Leger Searle and U.S. Pat. No. 4,711,512 issued to Upatnieks disclose substrate waveguide head up displays where the pupil of a collimating optical system is effectively expanded by the waveguide structure. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/869,866 discloses holographic wide angle displays and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/844,456 discloses waveguide displays having an upper and lower field of view.


A common requirement in waveguide optics is to provide beam expansion in two orthogonal directions. In display applications this translates to a large eyebox. While the principles of beam expansion in holographic waveguides are well established dual axis expansion requires separate grating layers to provide separate vertical and horizontal expansion. One of the gratings, usually the one giving the second axis expansion, also provides the near eye component of the display where the high transparency and thin, lightweight form factor of a diffractive optics can be used to maximum effect. In practical display applications, which demand full color and large fields of view the number of layers required to implement dual axis expansion becomes unacceptably large resulting in increased thickness weight and haze. Solutions for reducing the number of layers based on multiplexing two or more gratings in a single layer or fold gratings which can perform dual axis expansion (for a given angular range and wavelength) in a single layer are currently in development. Dual axis expansion is also an issue in waveguides for sensor applications such as eye trackers and LIDAR. There is a requirement for a low cost, efficient, compact dual axis expansion waveguide.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention will now be further described by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings. It will apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced with some or all of the present invention as disclosed in the following description. For the purposes of explaining the invention well-known features of optical technology known to those skilled in the art of optical design and visual displays have been omitted or simplified in order not to obscure the basic principles of the invention. Unless otherwise stated the term “on-axis” in relation to a ray or a beam direction refers to propagation parallel to an axis normal to the surfaces of the optical components described in relation to the invention. In the following description the terms light, ray, beam and direction may be used interchangeably and in association with each other to indicate the direction of propagation of electromagnetic radiation along rectilinear trajectories. The term light and illumination may be used in relation to the visible and infrared bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Parts of the following description will be presented using terminology commonly employed by those skilled in the art of optical design. It should also be noted that in the following description of the invention repeated usage of the phrase “in one embodiment” does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment.


Referring generally to the Figures, systems and methods relating to near-eye display or head up display systems are shown according to various embodiments. Holographic waveguide technology can be advantageously utilized in waveguides for helmet mounted displays or head mounted displays (HMDs) and head up displays (HUDs) for many applications, including military applications and consumer applications (e.g., augmented reality glasses, etc.). Switchable Bragg gratings (SBGs) may be used in waveguides to eliminate extra layers and to reduce the thickness of current display systems, including HMDs, HUDs, and other near eye displays and to increase the field of view by tiling images presented sequentially on a microdisplay. A larger exit pupil may be created by using fold gratings in conjunction with conventional gratings to provide pupil expansion on a single waveguide in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Using the systems and methods disclosed herein, a single optical waveguide substrate may generate a wider field of view than found in current waveguide systems. Diffraction gratings may be used to split and diffract light rays into several beams that travel in different directions, thereby dispersing the light rays.


The grating used in the invention is desirably a Bragg grating (also referred to as a volume grating). Bragg gratings have high efficiency with little light being diffracted into higher orders. The relative amount of light in the diffracted and zero order can be varied by controlling their refractive index modulation of the grating, a property which is used to make lossy waveguide gratings for extracting light over a large pupil. One important class of gratings is known as Switchable Bragg Gratings (SBG). SBGs are fabricated by first placing a thin film of a mixture of photopolymerizable monomers and liquid crystal material between parallel glass plates. One or both glass plates support electrodes, typically transparent indium tin oxide films, for applying an electric field across the film. A volume phase grating is then recorded by illuminating the liquid material (often referred to as the syrup) with two mutually coherent laser beams, which interfere to form a slanted fringe grating structure. During the recording process, the monomers polymerize and the mixture undergoes a phase separation, creating regions densely populated by liquid crystal micro-droplets, interspersed with regions of clear polymer. The alternating liquid crystal-rich and liquid crystal-depleted regions form the fringe planes of the grating. The resulting volume phase grating can exhibit very high diffraction efficiency, which may be controlled by the magnitude of the electric field applied across the film. When an electric field is applied to the grating via transparent electrodes, the natural orientation of the LC droplets is changed causing the refractive index modulation of the fringes to reduce and the hologram diffraction efficiency to drop to very low levels. Typically, SBG Elements are switched clear in 30 μs. With a longer relaxation time to switch ON. Note that the diffraction efficiency of the device can be adjusted, by means of the applied voltage, over a continuous range. The device exhibits near 100% efficiency with no voltage applied and essentially zero efficiency with a sufficiently high voltage applied. In certain types of HPDLC devices magnetic fields may be used to control the LC orientation. In certain types of HPDLC phase separation of the LC material from the polymer may be accomplished to such a degree that no discernible droplet structure results. A SBG may also be used as a passive grating. In this mode its chief benefit is a uniquely high refractive index modulation.


SBGs may be used to provide transmission or reflection gratings for free space applications. SBGs may be implemented as waveguide devices in which the HPDLC forms either the waveguide core or an evanescently coupled layer in proximity to the waveguide. The parallel glass plates used to form the HPDLC cell provide a total internal reflection (TIR) light guiding structure. Light is coupled out of the SBG when the switchable grating diffracts the light at an angle beyond the TIR condition. Waveguides are currently of interest in a range of display and sensor applications. Although much of the earlier work on HPDLC has been directed at reflection holograms transmission devices are proving to be much more versatile as optical system building blocks. Typically, the HPDLC used in SBGs comprise liquid crystal (LC), monomers, photoinitiator dyes, and coinitiators. The mixture frequently includes a surfactant. The patent and scientific literature contains many examples of material systems and processes that may be used to fabricate SBGs. Two fundamental patents are: U.S. Pat. No. 5,942,157 by Sutherland, and U.S. Pat. No. 5,751,452 by Tanaka et al. Both filings describe monomer and liquid crystal material combinations suitable for fabricating SBG devices. One of the known attributes of transmission SBGs is that the LC molecules tend to align normal to the grating fringe planes. The effect of the LC molecule alignment is that transmission SBGs efficiently diffract P polarized light (i.e. light with the polarization vector in the plane of incidence) but have nearly zero diffraction efficiency for S polarized light (i.e. light with the polarization vector normal to the plane of incidence. Transmission SBGs may not be used at near-grazing incidence as the diffraction efficiency of any grating for P polarization falls to zero when the included angle between the incident and reflected light is small.


The object of the invention is achieved in first embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1 in which there is provided a dual axis expansion waveguide display 100 comprising a light source 101 a microdisplay panel 102 and an input image node (IIN) 103 optically coupled to a waveguide 104 comprise two grating layers 104A,104B. In some embodiments the waveguide is formed by sandwiched the grating layers between glass or plastic substrates to form a stack within which total internal reflection occurs at the outer substrate and air interfaces. The stack may further comprise additional layers such as beam splitting coatings and environmental protection layers. Each grating layer contains an input grating 105A,105B, a fold grating exit pupil expander 106A,106B and an output grating 107A,107B where characters A and B refer to waveguide layers 104A,104B respectively. The input grating, fold grating and the output grating are holographic gratings, such as a switchable or non-switchable SBG. As used herein, the term grating may encompass a grating comprised of a set of gratings in some embodiments. In general the IIN integrates a microdisplay panel, light source and optical components needed to illuminate the display panel, separate the reflected light and collimate it into the required FOV. In the embodiment of FIG. 1 and in the embodiments to be described below at least one of the input fold and output gratings may be electrically switchable. In many embodiments it is desirable that all three grating types are passive, that is, non-switching. The IIN projects the image displayed on the microdisplay panel such that each display pixel is converted into a unique angular direction within the substrate waveguide according to some embodiments. The collimation optics contained in the IIN may comprise lens and mirrors which is some embodiments may be diffractive lenses and mirrors.


In some embodiments the IIN may be based on the embodiments and teachings disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/869,866 entitled HOLOGRAPHIC WIDE ANGLE DISPLAY, and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/844,456 entitled TRANSPARENT WAVEGUIDE DISPLAY. In some embodiments the IIN contains beamsplitter for directing light onto the microdisplay and transmitting the reflected light towards the waveguide. In one embodiment the beamsplitter is a grating recorded in HPDLC and uses the intrinsic polarization selectivity of such gratings to separate the light illuminating the display and the image modulated light reflected off the display. In some embodiments the beam splitter is a polarizing beam splitter cube. In some embodiment the IIN incorporates a despeckler. Advantageously, the despeckler is holographic waveguide device based on the embodiments and teachings of U.S. Pat. No. 8,565,560 entitled LASER ILLUMINATION DEVICE.


The light source can be a laser or LED and can include one or more lenses for modifying the illumination beam angular characteristics. The image source can be a micro-display or laser based display. LED will provide better uniformity than laser. If laser illumination is used there is a risk of illumination banding occurring at the waveguide output. In some embodiments laser illumination banding in waveguides can be overcome using the techniques and teachings disclosed in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/071,277 entitled METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING INPUT IMAGES FOR HOLOGRAPHIC WAVEGUIDE DISPLAYS. In some embodiments, the light from the light source 101 is polarized. In one or more embodiments, the image source is a liquid crystal display (LCD) micro display or liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) micro display.


The light path from the source to the waveguide via the IIN is indicated by rays 1000-1003. The input grating of each grating layer couples a portion of the light into a TIR path in the waveguide once such path being represented by the rays 1004-1005. The output waveguides 107A,107C diffract light out of the waveguide into angular ranges of collimated light 1006,1007 respectively for viewing by the eye 108. The angular ranges, which correspond to the field of view of the display, are defined solely by the IIN optics. In some embodiments the waveguide gratings may encoded optical power for adjusting the collimation of the output. In some embodiments the output image is at infinity. In some embodiments the output image may be formed at distances of several meters from the eye box. Typically the eye is positioned within the exit pupil or eye box of the display.


In some embodiments similar to the one shown in FIG. 1 each grating layer addresses half the total field of view. Typically, the fold gratings are clocked (that is, tilted in the waveguide plane) at 45° to ensure adequate angular bandwidth for the folded light. However some embodiments of the invention may use other clock angles to satisfy spatial constraints on the positioning of the gratings that may arise in the ergonomic design of the display. In some embodiments at least one of the input and output gratings have rolled k-vectors. The K-vector is a vector aligned normal to the grating planes (or fringes) which determines the optical efficiency for a given range of input and diffracted angles. Rolling the K-vectors allows the angular bandwidth of the grating to be expanded without the need to increase the waveguide thickness.


In some embodiments the fold grating angular bandwidth can be enhanced by designing the grating prescription provides dual interaction of the guided light with the grating. Exemplary embodiments of dual interaction fold gratings are disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14/620,969 entitled WAVEGUIDE GRATING DEVICE.


It is well established in the literature of holography that more than one holographic prescription can be recorded into a single holographic layer. Methods for recording such multiplexed holograms are well known to those skilled in the art. In some embodiments at least one of the input, fold or output gratings may combine two or more angular diffraction prescriptions to expand the angular bandwidth. Similarly, in some embodiments at least one of the input, fold or output gratings may combine two or more spectral diffraction prescriptions to expand the spectral bandwidth. For example a color multiplexed grating may be used to diffract two or more of the primary colors.



FIG. 2 is a plan view 110 of a single grating layer similar to the ones used in FIG. 1. The grating layer 111 which is optically coupled to the IIN 112 comprising input grating 113, a first beamsplitter 114, a fold grating 115, a second beamsplitter 116 and an output grating 117. The beamsplitter are partially transmitting coatings which homogenise the wave guided light by providing multiple reflection paths within the waveguide. Each beamsplitter may comprise more than one coating layer with each coating layer being applied to a transparent substrates. Typical beam paths from the IIN up to the eye 118 are indicated by the rays 1010-1014.



FIG. 3 is a plan view 110 of a two grating layer configuration similar to the ones used in FIG. 1 The grating layers 121A,121B which are optically coupled to the IIN 122 comprise input gratings 123A,123B, first beamsplitters 124A,124B, fold gratings 125A,125B, second beamsplitters 126A,126B and output gratings 127A,127B, where the characters A, B refer to the first and second grating layers and the gratings and beams splitters of the two layers substantially overlap.


In the most waveguide configurations the input fold and output gratings are formed in a single layer sandwiched by transparent substrates. The embodiment of FIG. 1 has two such layers stacked. In some embodiments the waveguide may comprise just one grating layer. The substrates are not illustrated in FIG. 1 where the gratings are switching transparent electrodes are applied to opposing surfaces of the substrate layers sandwiching the switching grating. In some embodiments the cell substrates may be fabricated from glass. An exemplary glass substrate is standard Corning Willow glass substrate (index 1.51) which is available in thicknesses down to 50 micron. In other embodiments the cell substrates may be optical plastics.


In some embodiments the grating layer may be broken up into separate layers. For example, in some embodiments, a first layer includes the fold grating while a second layer includes the output grating. In some embodiments, a third layer can include the input grating. The number of layers may then be laminated together into a single waveguide substrate. In some embodiments, the grating layer is comprised of a number of pieces including the input coupler, the fold grating and the output grating (or portions thereof) that are laminated together to form a single substrate waveguide. The pieces may be separated by optical glue or other transparent material of refractive index matching that of the pieces. In another embodiment, the grating layer may be formed via a cell making process by creating cells of the desired grating thickness and vacuum filling each cell with SBG material for each of the input coupler, the fold grating and the output grating. In one embodiment, the cell is formed by positioning multiple plates of glass with gaps between the plates of glass that define the desired grating thickness for the input coupler, the fold grating and the output grating. In one embodiment, one cell may be made with multiple apertures such that the separate apertures are filled with different pockets of SBG material. Any intervening spaces may then be separated by a separating material (e.g., glue, oil, etc.) to define separate areas. In one embodiment the SBG material may be spin-coated onto a substrate and then covered by a second substrate after curing of the material. By using the fold grating, the waveguide display advantageously requires fewer layers than previous systems and methods of displaying information according to some embodiments. In addition, by using fold grating, light can travel by total internal refection within the waveguide in a single rectangular prism defined by the waveguide outer surfaces while achieving dual pupil expansion. In another embodiment, the input coupler, the fold grating and the output grating can be created by interfering two waves of light at an angle within the substrate to create a holographic wave front, thereby creating light and dark fringes that are set in the waveguide substrate 101 at a desired angle. In some embodiments the grating in a given layer is recorded in stepwise fashion by scanning or stepping the recording laser beams across the grating area. N some embodiments the gratings are recorded using mastering and contact copying process currently used in the holographic printing industry.


In one embodiment, the input coupler, the fold grating, and the output grating embodied as SBGs can be Bragg gratings recorded in a holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal (HPDLC) (e.g., a matrix of liquid crystal droplets), although SBGs may also be recorded in other materials. In one embodiment, SBGs are recorded in a uniform modulation material, such as POLICRYPS or POLIPHEM having a matrix of solid liquid crystals dispersed in a liquid polymer. The SBGs can be switching or non-switching in nature. In its non switching form an SBG has the advantage over conventional holographic photopolymer materials of being capable of providing high refractive index modulation due to its liquid crystal component. Exemplary uniform modulation liquid crystal-polymer material systems are disclosed in United State Patent Application Publication No.: US2007/0019152 by Caputo et al and PCT Application No.: PCT/EP2005/006950 by Stumpe et al. both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. Uniform modulation gratings are characterized by high refractive index modulation (and hence high diffraction efficiency) and low scatter.


In one embodiment, the input coupler, the fold grating, and the output grating a reverse mode HPDLC material. Reverse mode HPDLC differs from conventional HPDLC in that the grating is passive when no electric field is applied and becomes diffractive in the presence of an electric field. The reverse mode HPDLC may be based on any of the recipes and processes disclosed in PCT Application No.: PCT/GB2012/000680, entitled IMPROVEMENTS TO HOLOGRAPHIC POLYMER DISPERSED LIQUID CRYSTAL MATERIALS AND DEVICES. The grating may be recorded in any of the above material systems but used in a passive (non-switching) mode. The fabrication process is identical to that used for switched but with the electrode coating stage being omitted. LC polymer material systems are highly desirable in view of their high index modulation. In some embodiments the gratings are recorded in HPDLC but are not switched.


In some embodiments the input grating may be replaced by another type of input coupler such as a prism, or reflective surface. In some embodiments, the input coupler can be a holographic grating, such as a switchable or non-switchable SBG grating. The input coupler is configured to receive collimated light from a display source and to cause the light to travel within the waveguide via total internal reflection between the first surface and the second surface to the fold grating. The input coupler may be orientated directly towards or at an angle relative to the fold grating. For example, in one embodiment, the input coupler may be set at a slight incline in relation to the fold grating.


In some embodiments, the fold grating may be oriented in a diagonal direction. The fold grating is configured to provide pupil expansion in a first direction and to direct the light to the output grating via total internal reflection inside the waveguide in some embodiments.


In one embodiment, a longitudinal edge of each fold grating is oblique to the axis of alignment of the input coupler such that each fold grating is set on a diagonal with respect to the direction of propagation of the display light. The fold grating is angled such that light from the input coupler is redirected to the output grating. In one example, the fold grating is set at a forty-five degree angle relative to the direction that the display image is released from the input coupler. This feature causes the display image propagating down the fold grating to be turned into the output grating. For example, in one embodiment, the fold grating causes the image to be turned 90 degrees into the output grating. In this manner, a single waveguide provides dual axis pupil expansion in both the horizontal and vertical directions. In one embodiment, each of the fold grating may have a partially diffractive structure.


In some embodiments, each of the fold gratings may have a fully diffractive structure. In some embodiments, different grating configurations and technologies may be incorporated in a single waveguide.


The output grating is configured to provide pupil expansion in a second direction different than the first direction and to cause the light to exit the waveguide from the first surface or the second surface. The output grating receives the display image from the fold grating via total internal reflection and provides pupil expansion in a second direction. In some embodiments, the output grating consists of multiple layers of substrate, thereby comprising multiple layers of output gratings. Accordingly, there is no requirement for gratings to be in one plane within the waveguide, and gratings may be stacked on top of each other (e.g., cells of gratings stacked on top of each other).


In some embodiments, a quarter wave plate on the substrate waveguide rotates polarization of a light ray to maintain efficient coupling with the SBGs. The quarter wave plate may be coupled to or adhered to the surface of substrate waveguide 101.

In practical embodiments of the invention care must be taken to ensure that the IIN is optically matched to the waveguide. Waveguides raise optical interfacing issues that are not encountered in conventional optical systems in particular matching the input image angular content to the angular capacity of the waveguide and input grating. The optical design challenge is to match the IIN aperture variation as a function of field angle to the rolled K-vector input grating diffraction direction. Desirably the waveguide should be designed to make the waveguide thickness as small as possible while maximizing the spread of field angles at any given point on the input grating, subject to the limits imposed by the angular bandwidth of the input grating, and the angular carrying capacity of the waveguide. From consideration of the above description and the teachings of earlier filings such it should be appreciated that coupling collimated angular image content over the full field of view and without significant non-uniformity of the illumination distribution across the pupil requires a numerical aperture (NA) variation ranging from high NA on one side of the microdisplay falling smoothly to a low NA at the other side. For the purposes of explaining the invention the NA is defined as being proportional to the sine of the maximum angle of the image ray cone from a point on the microdisplay surface with respect to an axis normal to the microdisplay. Other equivalent measures may be used for the purposes of determining the most optimal IIN to waveguide coupling. Controlling the NA in this way will ensure high optical efficiency and reduced banding and other illumination non-homogeneities in the case of LED-illuminated displays. Laser-illuminated displays will also benefit from the control of NA variation across the microdisplay particular with regard to homogeneity.


The following embodiments address the problem of varying the NA. In one embodiment using angle selective coatings, gratings wedges, micro elements, freeform elements, etc, inside the IIN.

The Y and X axes are vertical and horizontal respectively. The rolled-K vectors gratings have their K-vectors tilted in the X-Z plane. Image light in the waveguide propagates substantially in the X-direction. In the following paragraphs we shall describe schemes for varying the NA from high to low (or vice versa) across the horizontal axis of the microdisplay that is along the X-direction. In some embodiments the microdisplay is an LCoS device.
