Abstract

An optical device for combining RGB optical signals in a single waveguide. The device includes a plurality of DOEs. A first DOE is configured to receive an optical signal at input propagation angles and to diffract the optical signal based on spectrum such that predominately one spectrum of light is diffracted in a first direction and path and predominately a second spectrum of light is diffracted in a second different direction and path. The first DOE is configured to diffract light into a second DOE. The second DOE is configured to diffract light into a third DOE. The third DOE is configured to diffract light into an eye box keeping output propagation angles substantially parallel to the input propagation angles. A summation of grating vectors for each of the paths is substantially equal to zero.
