Abstract

Abstract We demonstrate a reflective chirped polarization volume grating as a strong contender for wide field‐of‐view augmented reality display systems. By introducing gradient pitch along the beam propagation direction, the angular bandwidth extends dramatically from 18° to 54° while keeping over 80% average efficiency and 95% peak efficiency.
