There is provided an exit pupil expander (EPE) for use in a diffractive display, the EPE comprising a plurality of diffractive zones on a waveguide and a plurality of non-diffractive zones between at least some of the diffractive zones.

Exit pupil expander

There is provided a diffractive display element comprising a waveguide body, an in-coupling region for diffractively coupling light into the waveguide body, and an out-coupling region for diffractively coupling light out of the waveguide body, said light being adapted to propagate from said in-coupling region to the out-coupling region along a primary route. According to the invention, the element further comprises at least one grating mirror outside said primary route for diffractively mirroring light strayed from said primary route back to said primary route. The invention allows for increasing the efficiency of waveguide-based personal displays.
