We demonstrate a light efficient virtual reality (VR) near-eye display (NED) design based on a directional display panel and a diffractive deflection film (DDF). The DDF was essentially a high-efficiency Pancharatnam-Berry phase optical element made of liquid crystal polymer. The essence of this design is directing most of the display light into the eyebox. The proposed method is applicable for both catadioptric and dioptric VR lenses. A proof-of-concept experiment was conducted with off-the-shelf optical parts, where the light efficiency was enhanced by more than 2 times.

AbstractMetasurfaces as optically thin composite layers can be modeled as electric and magnetic surface current sheets flowing in the layer volume in the metasurface plane. In the most general linear metasurface, the electric surface current can be induced by both incident electric and magnetic fields. Likewise, magnetic polarization and magnetic current can be induced also by external electric field. Metasurfaces which exhibit magnetoelectric coupling are called bianisotropic metasurfaces. In this review, we explain the role of bianisotropic properties in realizing various metasurface devices and overview the state-of-the-art of research in this field. Interestingly, engineered bianisotropic response is seen to be required for realization of many key field transformations, such as anomalous refraction, asymmetric reflection, polarization transformation, isolation, and more. Moreover, we summarize previously reported findings on uniform and gradient bianisotropic metasurfaces and envision novel and prospective research directions in this field.

Astronomical spectrographs are usually mounted at one of three focal positions on a reflecting telescope: (1) the Newtonian focus, at the top of the telescope tube, with only one reflection from the primary mirror, where the spectrograph must be small and light, and designed for low resolution on faint objects; (2) the Cassegrain focus, behind the cell of the primary mirror, with a total of two reflections, where the spectrograph can be appreciably larger, to give intermediate resolution; and (3) the coude focus, at a fixed location below the end of the polar axis, with three, four or five reflections, where there is no limit to the size of the instrument, and where resolution is limited only by the brightness of the object and the light efficiency of the system. This is the ideal location for image tubes, Fabry-Perot interferometers, and equipment for Fourier spectroscopy.

The most common technological solution for increasing the light efficiency of the LEDs based upon AlGaInP heterostructures are discussed in the paper. The creation of LEDs with the inclusion of quantum wells and quantum dots in the active region, removing the original base and placing the LED on a new substrate, the replacement of the absorbent substrate by the reflective, using light-reflective surfaces such as Bragg reflectors or a mirror base (substrate), the list of new based materials for the LEDs based upon AlGaInP heterostructures as same as sapphire, glass, gallium phosphide, silicon and silicon carbide are presented. Therefore, new advanced methods of emission power are emerging.
