Three-dimensional holographic elements are disclosed. Three-dimensional Bragg gratings recorded on bulks of optical material are included in the disclosure. Such elements may be manufactured by placing a three-dimensional bulk of optical material directly behind a recorded master hologram, directing a reference beam onto a master hologram such that a replica of the master hologram is recorded in the optical material. The replica may form the three-dimensional holographic element. The master hologram may be Bragg grating formed on a surface of a transparent substrate.

摘要:
A planar substrate having a first diffractive element for coupling light waves of different colors into the substrate and guiding the light waves by successive internal reflections. A second diffractive element, disposed on the substrate, causes the guided light waves to be partially transmitted out of the substrate where the light waves encounter the second diffractive element. Because light waves of each color are reflected at different reflection angles, the light waves with smaller reflection angles encounter the second diffractive element at more locations than those with larger reflection angles, resulting in color non-uniformity in the light transmitted out from the substrate surface. One or more interfaces are provided between the surfaces of the substrate to selectively reflect the light waves having larger reflection angles toward the second diffraction element, so that light waves of different colors encounter the second diffraction element substantially at the same number of locations.
摘要:
An optical filter comprising a first CBG including a first end and a second end, a second CBG of the same structure as the first CBG, including a third end of the same structure as the first end and a fourth end of the same structure as the second end, and a circuit including an input port and an output port. The circuit receives a first optical signal via the input port and brings it to the first end of the first CBG, the circuit receives a second optical signal produced by reflecting the first optical signal from the first CBG and brings the second optical signal to the fourth end of the second CBG, and the circuit receives a third optical signal produced by reflecting the second optical signal from the second CBG and outputs the third optical signal via the output port.
