Abstract

A high-efficient wide-angle coupling grating comprises a blazed grating structured substrate and three film layers, wherein the three film layers are plated on an oblique surface of the substrate and are not identical in refractive indexes and thicknesses, the refractive indexes of the first film layer and the third film layer are identical, and the refractive index of the second film layer is smaller than that of the first film layer and the third film layer. The thickness of the second film layer is smaller than that of the first film layer and larger than that of the third film layer. Optical cement is adhered on the film layers and is connected with an emission medium of a coupled light beam. The cycle of the coupling grating is related to an incidence wavelength and the refractive index of the emission medium. When the incidence wavelength is 532nm and the refractive index of the emission medium is 1.52, the cycle of the coupling grate is 410nm. When the light beam is in vertical incidence, the coupling efficiency is close to 97%. When an vertical angle of the light beam varies within -8 DEG C to 12 DEG C, and a transverse angle thereof varies within -15 DEG C to 15 DEG C, the coupling efficiency is larger than 93%. The high-efficient wide-angle coupling grating is capable of coupling light beams efficiently in wide incidence angle, and is applicable to a diffraction screen display system with large field of view.
