Abstract:
A method and system for using laser-induced structures to direct light to exit the bottom of a leaky mode device, and further to divide leaky mode light into multiple orders, and to implement one or more pulsing/strobing patterns such that a field of view is increased for a viewer, or the view zone is increased for a viewer. A leaky mode device may comprise a substrate, a surface acoustic wave (“SAW”) transducer, a waveguide having a higher refractive index than the substrate, an input region for input light, and laser induced structures such as grating. The SAW transducer may be positioned on a top surface of the substrate, and may be configured to emit a SAW wave to propagate across the substrate. The waveguide may be positioned below the SAW. The input wave region may be configured to couple light onto the waveguide. When light is coupled onto the waveguide, the refractive index may change such that the light in the waveguide exits the waveguide as leaky mode light and interacts with the laser-induced grating, which is below the waveguide. The laser-induced grating is configured to divide the leaky mode light into multiple orders, each bent at a different angle.
