Abstract

A holographic HMD element having low aberrations and high diffraction efficiency over wide FOV has been fabricated. In order to design the HOE having low aberrations a recursive technique was used. To obtain the HOE having low aberrations as well as high diffraction efficiency over a wide FOV, we used an intermediate hologram and the grating function of the aberration corrected hologram was transferred to the final hologram through it. For the fabricated final HMD element, we got the results of spot size improved about 10 times and high diffraction efficiency over FOV of $\pm$10$^{\circ}$.

수차가 적고 넓은 시야각에 걸쳐 높은 회절효율을 보이는 홀로그래픽 HMD 소자를 설계, 제작하였다. 적은 수차를 갖는 홀로그래픽 광학소자를 설계하기 위하여 recursive 설계 방법이 사용되었다. 적은 수차뿐만 아니라 넓은 FOV에 걸쳐 높은 회절효율을 갖도록 하기 위해 매개 홀로그램을 사용하였으며, 이를 이용해 수차가 보정된 홀로그램의 격자 함수를 최종적인 홀로그램에 전송하였다. 제작된 최종의 HMD용 홀로그래픽 광학소자의 수차는 보정 전보다 10배 가량 향상되었으며 FOV는 $\pm$$10^{\circ}$를 나타내었다.
